Israeli air strike hits Baalbek in Lebanon

Lebanon's state media reported that an Israeli air strike targeted the eastern Baalbek region before dawn on Wednesday, calling it a “violation” of the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.

The truce went into effect on November 27 after more than a year of hostilities that began with Israel's war on Gaza.

Wednesday's strike near the town of Tarya did not result in casualties, the state-run National News Agency said, calling the attack the "first violation of the ceasefire agreement" in the Baalbek area.

A Lebanese security source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the strike targeted "warehouses believed to belong to Hezbollah".
