Israel has launched a series of attacks against southern Lebanon, the military said, according to Israeli media.

This comes shortly after the Israeli military ordered evacuations of residents of four Lebanese communities.

The newspaper L'Orient-Le Jour reports that an Israeli warplane bombed Mahrouna in the Tyr district of southern Lebanon. There are also reports of bombings against Nabatiyeh and Naqoura.

According to Israel, the attacks are directed at targets belonging to the Shiite militia Hezbollah, with which Israel entered into a fragile ceasefire in November last year.

The attacks come the day after Israel and Lebanon held their first high-level talks in a very long time, with Israel reportedly stressing that it is “crucial” that Hezbollah disarm.
