Israel strikes southern Lebanon towns with white phosphorus, violating ceasefire

Israel launched heavy bombing campaigns on Monday evening in Zawtar al-Sharqiyah and Kafr Rumman, Nabatieh district, using white phosphorus munitions, according to Lebanon's state-run NNA. This marks a fresh violation of prior ceasefire agreements, escalating tensions along the border. The use of incendiary weapons raises humanitarian and legal concerns, and the incident could further destabilize the fragile truce.
