At least 9 people were killed in southern Lebanon on Wednesday as Israeli air strikes continued despite a partial ceasefire agreement. Lebanese authorities said the victims included two paramedics whose ambulance was hit in the Chehour area, while several other strikes targeted locations near Tyre and Nabatieh. Hezbollah said it launched rockets into northern Israel in response to what it called Israeli violations of the ceasefire. The Israeli military said it intercepted a drone and two projectiles crossing the border. The violence has raised concerns over the fragile truce announced earlier this week. Meanwhile, Israeli and Lebanese officials continued talks in Washington aimed at strengthening the ceasefire and preventing a wider regional escalation involving Iran and the United States.
