Israeli strikes across Lebanon have killed at least seven people since Thursday, when the Lebanese cabinet voted to endorse a disputed US-drafted plan that aims for Hezbollah’s disarmament. An Israeli strike on the Saida-Sour motorway to south Lebanon on Friday killed journalist Mohammad Shehadeh, the director of the Hawana Lebanon news site. Hezbollah released a martyrdom poster following his death, acknowledging his membership in the group. On Thursday – while Lebanon’s cabinet was meeting to vote on the issue of Hezbollah’s disarmament – at least six people were killed and 10 wounded in Israeli strikes in the Bekaa region, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.
