The Lebanese military has said that Israeli attacks are preventing it from completing its deployment in southern Lebanon and hindering the return of residents to their homes, according to Al Jazeera.

In a statement posted on X, the army accuses the Israeli military of continuing its “assaults and violations of existing agreements and international laws”.

It lists the latest attacks as the bombing of a building, a public school, a clinic, a children’s daycare and several homes in the Nabatieh area.

The attacks demonstrate Israel’s “persistence in its destructive approach to inflict the greatest possible damage on the southern villages and towns, and to prevent the establishment of stability”, the military states.

Lebanese forces continue to carry out their missions in the south, but face “significant difficulties” as Israeli attacks are hindering “the completion of its deployment and the return of the residents”, it adds.
