An Israeli air strike has been reported on the outskirts of the town of Tulin in southern Lebanon, according to Al Jazeera.

Additional overnight strikes were also reported on the towns of Kfardounine, Froun, Sarbine and Tayr Debba.

Israeli strikes also hit areas near the town of al-Namirieh in southern Lebanon.

The attacks come despite the extension last week of the so-called “ceasefire” agreement between Israel and Lebanon.
