In a series of pre-dawn airstrikes, Israeli warplanes targeted multiple locations in southern Lebanon, causing significant destruction, Anadolu reports according to the Lebanese National News Agency.

At approximately 3:45am, an airstrike leveled the historic old mosque in the center of the town of Kfar Tibnit, completely destroying the structure, the agency reported.

Earlier, at around 12:15am, another airstrike targeted a three-story building next to Ghabris station on the Zefta-Nabatieh highway, also destroying it, it added.

The strike caused the closure of the road as debris from the building blocked access. The same building had been previously struck in an air raid a week earlier, partially damaging it.

A third airstrike was carried out at approximately 1:30am, this time targeting the town of Aita al-Shaab. No further details on casualties or additional damage were immediately available.
