Three people have been killed and over a dozen injured by Israeli air strikes, as attacks escalate in southern Lebanon, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency (NNA) reports.

Two of them were identified as a father and son: Zuhair Ahmad Hashim and his son Ali, who were killed in an air strike by Israeli forces in the early hours of Saturday morning at their home in the Al-Marj neighbourhood of Ansar, north of Tyre. Seven other family members were also injured, Lebanon’s NNA said.
