At least six people were killed in an airstrike on a residential building in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese Health Ministry said on Saturday.

Three others were injured in the Israeli strike, the ministry said in a statement.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has not yet commented on the incident.

On Friday, at least one person was killed and another wounded in an Israeli strike that hit the village of Aitaroun in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese Health Ministry said.

Meanwhile, the Lebanese pro-Iranian Hezbollah movement said that one of its fighters was killed, but did not say when or where.

The Israeli army said the place it hit in the Aitaroun area was a military structure in which Hezbollah terrorists were operating.

Hezbollah in Lebanon and Israel have been engaged in daily firefights since the Gaza war began in October.

More than 120 civilians have been killed, most of them on the Lebanese side.
