Hezbollah said its fighters destroyed three Israeli tanks and that clashes were ongoing, hours after Lebanese state media reported that Israeli strikes in the south killed three people, AFP reports.

The fighting came a day after the United States and Iran signed an agreement to end the Middle East war on all fronts, including in Lebanon.

Hezbollah said that its fighters targeted “three Merkava tanks with guided missiles, which led to their destruction and setting them on fire”.
