People stand on the rubble of a damaged site in the aftermath of what Lebanon's state media said was an Israeli strike in al-kfour, Nabatieh, southern Lebanon Aug 17, 2024. BEIRUT: The Lebanese health ministry said an Israeli air strike on the south on Saturday killed 10 Syrians, as the Israeli military reported hitting weapons stores of the Iran-backed Hezbollah movement.
Hezbollah said it responded with a volley of Katyusha rockets on Ayelet HaShahar, a community in northern Israel. "The current cycle of violence may lead to an escalation with dire consequences," Mikati told Lammy, according to a statement shared by his office. In an effort to avert an escalation, Western and Arab diplomats have intensified efforts for a Gaza truce but ahead of a fresh round of talks in Cairo next week, a deal remains elusive.
