The Israeli military has carried out deadly aerial assaults on southern Lebanon, killing several people, amid intensified attacks by the Tel Aviv regime against the Arab country.

The Lebanese National News Agency (NNA) reported on Tuesday that Israeli warplane bombed a home in the town of Daoudiya in southern Lebanon, killing at least 10 people and injuring five others.

All the victims of the attack belong to the Diab family, the report added.

Also on Tuesday, at least five people were killed in another Israeli airstrike that hit the crowded Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp, near the southern Lebanese city of Sidon.

Some reports said the raid targeted the home of Munir Al-Maqdah, leader of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Fatah movement in Lebanon.

Meanwhile, a Palestinian source told Lebanon’s al-Mayadeen news channel that the assassination attempt had failed.

Palestinian leader survives Israeli assassination attempt in southern Lebanon, son killed

A high-profile leader of a coalition of Palestinian resistance groups has survived an assassination attempt by Israel.

On Friday, the occupying regime assassinated Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the longtime leader of the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement, in a strike on southern Beirut using US-supplied bunker-buster bombs.

The terrorist act came almost a year into Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip and bloody airstrikes on Lebanon.

In defense of Lebanon and in support of Palestinians, Hezbollah has launched retaliatory attacks on Israeli targets and vowed to keep fighting until the Gaza onslaught ends.
