Lebanon's Ministry of Health has said Israeli strikes on the country on Sunday killed 14 people, including two children and two women, and injured 37,  BBC reported. 

An Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson had earlier issued evacuation warnings for several villages in southern Lebanon, writing that residents "must evacuate" immediately, and that staying would be "endangering their life".

The IDF later said it had carried out "artillery and aerial strikes" targeting Hezbollah operatives and sites in southern Lebanon that it claims were used "to advance attacks against IDF soldiers".
