Two more people were killed, including a child, and three others were injured in attacks in Tayr Debba in Tyre, the ministry said, Anadolu reported.

Three people were also killed in a separate attack in the town of Jouaiya in Tyre.

Israeli strikes also injured two people in the town of Zrarieh in Sidon and two others in Jibchit in the Nabatieh district.
