BEIRUT, Lebanon — Israeli strikes on Saturday killed two people and sparked wildfires in southern Lebanon, state media said, with Iran-backed armed group Hezbollah announcing the death of one fighter.

Hezbollah, a Hamas ally, has traded near-daily fire with Israeli forces in the eight months since the Gaza war began, triggered by the Palestinian militant group's October 7 attack.The deadly clashes have intensified in recent weeks, causing multiple brush fires on both sides of the Israel- Lebanon border and raising fears the conflict could broaden.

'Phosphorus shells' 'Israeli artillery bombarded today the outskirts of the town of Alma al-Shaab with incendiary phosphorus shells, causing fires in the forests that spread to the vicinity of some homes,' NNA reported earlier on Saturday.It added that the fire had reached 'large areas of olive trees'.Lebanese authorities and several international rights groups have accused Israel of using white phosphorus rounds in its strikes on its northern neighbour.
