"The Lebanese Health Ministry says at least 16 people were killed and 35 were wounded in Israeli air raids on the town of Nabi Chit, in the eastern Bekaa Valley. This latest reported raid would be the deepest Israeli forces' incursion inside Lebanon since special unit troops apprehended Hezbollah operative Imad Amhaz from the northern city of Batroun in November 2024."
"Hezbollah said in a statement that its fighters had observed the infiltration of four Israeli enemy army helicopters from the Syrian direction. After landing, advancing troops were engaged by a group of Hezbollah fighters as they reached the Nabi Chit cemetery, Hezbollah said, noting the use of light and medium weapons."
"Clashes are taking place on the eastern mountain range along the Lebanese-Syrian border to repel Israeli landing attempts. The agency gave the location of the incursion as Nabi Chit, in the eastern Baalbek district where Hezbollah holds sway."
