Israeli artillery shelled the outskirts of the towns of Hadatha and Barashit in southern Lebanon this morning, Tuesday, and an Israeli drone dropped a sound bomb on a house on the outskirts of the town of Haris in southern Lebanon.

Israeli forces also opened fire with machine guns at dawn towards the town of Bayout al-Sayyad and the outskirts of the town of Al-Mansouri in southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese official news agency "National News Agency".

The shelling comes amid ongoing Israeli escalation in southern Lebanon, where border areas and surrounding towns are witnessing drone and warplane flights and intermittent artillery shelling, coinciding with ground movements, exacerbating damages and increasing fears among residents in their towns.

Israel has been waging war on Lebanon since March 2nd, following the launch of rockets by "Hezbollah" at northern Israel. Israeli forces have occupied several towns in southern Lebanon.

A ceasefire was announced on June 20, and after that, the pace of Israeli targeting in southern Lebanon decreased.
