Israeli drone strikes in southern Lebanon on Tuesday kill eight people, according to multiple reports citing Lebanon’s health officials. The deaths include children, with one account describing a father killed along with his son and daughter. The strikes occur a day after U.S. President Donald Trump says Israel and Hezbollah have agreed to de-escalate. Several outlets report that Trump urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to attack Beirut, aiming to prevent a wider escalation. One report also describes heightened tensions leading up to the attacks: Israel issued threats on June 1 involving strikes on areas in and around Beirut’s southern suburbs, which reportedly triggered panic in the Lebanese capital as many residents fled to safer locations. Hezbollah is also reported to have fired rockets at northern Israel during the same period. Across the accounts, Israel’s focus is described as targeting Hezbollah-linked areas in southern Lebanon, while the U.S. role is framed around urging restraint following earlier regional developments between Israel and Iran. The outlets do not provide further confirmation of targets or responsibility beyond the reported Israeli strikes.
