Israeli air strikes on a village in southern Lebanon have killed at least nine people, the Lebanese health ministry says.
Eight people, including a child and two women, were killed in one strike that destroyed a residential building in Kfar Remman overnight, according to the ministry. A second strike on a vehicle killed a paramedic.
In-Depth Developments & Factual Context
The Israeli military said it was looking into the reports.
On Sunday, Israeli strikes killed seven people across southern Lebanon, as the Israeli military retaliated for what it said were drone attacks by the Shia Muslim armed group Hezbollah on troops in occupied areas of the country.
Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said the "dangerous escalation" was jeopardising June's US-brokered ceasefire, which was meant to end the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.

Forward Outlook & Market Perspective
Eleven killed in Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon, authorities say
The Israeli military has intensified its strikes in southern Lebanon in recent days.
They have happened in places near the strip of territory that is occupied by Israeli troops, and large numbers of residents have again been fleeing those areas.
The latest attacks targeted Kfar Remman, which is only a few hundred metres from what the Israeli military calls its "security zone".
The first air strike destroyed a three-storey residential building near the town's Shuyuiya roundabout shortly after midnight, Lebanon's state-run National News Agency reported.
The Lebanese health ministry said that in addition to the eight people killed, 11 were injured, including four children, two women, and a paramedic from the Islamic Health Association, which is an emergency service linked to Hezbollah.
