Widening Israeli Aggression on Lebanon Leaves Casualties, Trail of Damage

Heavy destruction in the southern Lebanese town of Srifa following an Israeli strikes (April 3, 2026).

Israeli enemy on Saturday went ahead with its brutal aggression on Lebanon, striking several areas across south Lebanon, Western Bekaa and Beirut’s southern suburb (Dahiyeh), resulting in more casualties and heavy damage.

Al-Manar correspondent in south Lebanon said enemy forces continued their intensified attacks on southern Lebanon, striking multiple towns including, Shaqra, Barashit, Haris, Srifa, Shehabiyeh, Debaal, Batouliyeh, Qana, and Ain Baal, leaving several people dead and others injured.

Several areas across the district of Tyre were also targeted including Al-Hosh, Burj AL-Shamali and Qadmous.

Airstrikes also targeted the main road linking Bafliyeh and Shahabiya, cutting a key route, while a separate strike on a motorcycle in Ain Baal wounded a civilian. Artillery shelling simultaneously hit the towns of Dbeine and Khiam.

In Shebaa, an Israeli force advanced at dawn into the Ain Al-Jawz neighborhood, raided a home, and abducted a civilian.

In the Western Bekaa, Israeli air raids caused widespread destruction, including the complete demolition of the vital Suhmor–Mashghara bridge, a key artery connecting several villages.

The bridge was first partially damaged in a nighttime strike before being fully destroyed in a second raid hours later, severing civilian movement across the area.

Strikes also hit Al-Qatrani town, as well as infrastructure and key sites in Western Bekaa, including the destruction of a historic mill in Suhmor dating back more than 150 years.

Elsewhere in Dahiyeh, our correspondent reported at least three strikes on Hay Madi, Al-Jamous and Tahwitat Al-Ghadeer, a day after four strikes were reported in the area on Friday.

The escalation reflects a widening campaign targeting infrastructure and heritage sites, raising concerns over mounting civilian hardship and disruption to daily life across the country.
