Israel staged fresh airstrikes in Lebanon after earlier raids killed 10 people, according to media and the government in Beirut, targeting an area near the Syrian border, reports AFP.

The state-run National News Agency said there were five Israeli airstrikes shortly before midnight in the mountainous Nabi Sreij area on the outskirts of Brital, which had been spared from attacks since an April 17 ceasefire with Hezbollah.

An AFP correspondent in the southern city of Tyre reported hearing two blasts as one building on the outskirts was struck, then another inside the city, sending plumes of smoke into the air.
