Israeli strikes kill 4 on Sept 6 in Lebanon

Israeli strikes across southern Lebanon killed four people and wounded at least 20 others on Sunday, September 6, 2026, according to the Lebanese health ministry. The attacks, which began at dawn, targeted several towns and cities in the Nabatieh district, including Arab Salim, Nabatieh alFawqa, and Kfar Rumman. The Israeli military stated it launched the strikes in response to Hezbollah firing two drones toward Israeli troops operating in its self-declared security zone in southern Lebanon, describing the action as a "blatant violation" of the ceasefire framework. No Israeli casualties were reported. The health ministry's provisional toll identified two women killed in Arab Salim and two people killed in Nabatieh alFawqa. Among the wounded were several women and three children. The strikes marked the first evacuation order issued by Israel in Lebanon in several weeks. At approximately 6 a.m. local time, the Israeli military ordered residents within 300 meters of a building in Arab Salim to evacuate, claiming the site was a Hezbollah "facility" without providing evidence.
