According to local reports, the Israeli army shelled towns in southern Lebanon on Wednesday, May 6, including Yahmar al-Shaqif in the Nabatieh region, with artillery fire allegedly containing phosphorus munitions banned under international conventions. The National News Agency also reported earlier strikes on Kounine and Beit Yahoun in the Bint Jbeil district involving similar shells. Despite a ceasefire announced on April 17 and extended to May 17, reports say Israeli strikes and home demolitions have continued across multiple villages.
