Aoun seeks US intervention after reported Israeli strikes kill at least 11 in Lebanon
The Lebanese president has appealed to Washington and the international community after strikes in southern Lebanon reportedly killed at least 11 people, despite a truce and framework deal.
Lebanese President Joseph Aoun has called on the United States and the international community to help stop reported Israeli attacks in southern Lebanon after at least 11 people were reportedly killed on Sunday.
France 24 reported that the strikes occurred despite a truce and framework deal intended to halt the violence. The material supplied does not confirm the current status of those arrangements.
The reported death toll has not been independently verified. Earlier accounts cited lower figures, including at least seven and at least 10 deaths, and it remains unclear whether the reports refer to separate incidents or overlapping casualties.
The strikes were reported in southern Lebanon, including Kfar Rumman, also referred to in some reports as Kfar Reman. The supplied material does not provide a confirmed breakdown of victims, targets or the circumstances of the attacks.
A US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon was reportedly reached in June 2026. Aoun’s appeal places renewed pressure on Washington and other international actors as questions remain over the effectiveness of the arrangements intended to contain the conflict.
