An Israeli air strike on the southern Lebanese town of Jarjouh, in the Iqlim al-Tuffah area, has killed four people from one family, Al Jazeera reports.

Lebanon’s official National News Agency reported Mohammad Hassan Mashourb, his wife Ghida Farhat, and their two children — Rayan and Ali Mashourb — died in the attack on their home in al-Sharaik neighbourhood.

Mashourb worked at Ogero, a telecommunications company, and had been helping to repair the region’s telephone network disrupted in recent weeks because of ongoing Israeli attacks.
