A second French national has been killed in Lebanon, France’s foreign ministry has said, as Israel carried out fresh strikes against Hezbollah, AFP reports.

“We confirm the death of a second French national,” said the foreign ministry statement, adding that they would release more details later.

Last Monday, an 87-year-old French woman was killed when her home collapsed following an explosion in the south of the country.
