Eleven people, including two infants, were killed in overnight Israeli airstrikes on the southern Lebanese village of Kfar Rumman, Lebanese state media reported Monday.

The strikes came a day after separate raids killed seven people, as Israel intensified its attacks in the southern Nabatieh area. The escalation followed Israel's announcement on Thursday that it had seized the strategic Ali al-Taher ridge from Hezbollah.

The Iran-backed group has not commented on that claim. Hezbollah was also accused of launching a drone.
