The article you provided highlights the ongoing conflict between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah group, with recent violence resulting in casualties on both sides of the border. Here’s a revised version:
“In southern Lebanon, a tragic incident occurred on Sunday when an Israeli strike targeted a village, claiming the lives of a couple and their child, according to a local official.
Tensions between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah, backed by Iran, have escalated since the outbreak of conflict in Gaza following an unprecedented attack by Hamas in October. The exchange of cross-border fire has intensified in recent weeks, with Israel conducting strikes deeper into Lebanese territory while Hezbollah has increased its missile and drone attacks on military positions in northern Israel.
The municipality chief of Mays al-Jabal, Abdelmoneim Chukair, confirmed the loss of lives in the strike, stating, “The dad, the mother, and their little son were martyred.”
Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported that the strike killed “three civilians” and injured several others.
Hezbollah announced on Saturday evening that it had fired on military positions in northern Israel, reiterating its stance that only a ceasefire in Gaza would halt its attacks on Israel.
Meanwhile, mediation efforts for a potential truce in the Gaza conflict continued as a Hamas delegation met with mediators in Egypt.
Amidst these developments, diplomatic efforts from the United States and France aimed to alleviate tensions along the Lebanese-Israeli border.
In nearly seven months of cross-border violence, Lebanon has witnessed at least 389 fatalities, including militants and over 70 civilians, according to an AFP tally. The toll also includes at least 11 Hamas fighters.
On the Israeli side of the border, 11 soldiers and nine civilians have lost their lives.
