Israeli Airstrikes Hit Southern Lebanon Towns: What the Reports Show and What Remains Unverified

Desk note. Monexus filed this piece on the strength of Telegram-sourced wire posts because no mainstream wire service had published a standalone report at the time of writing; the article's analytic centre of gravity is the evidentiary gap between those posts and any independent confirmation, not the strikes themselves.
