2 killed in Israeli air strikes Sunday, Lebanese state media report

 Two people have been killed amid a fresh wave of over 60 Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon since dawn on Sunday, the official National News Agency (NNA) in Lebanon has said.

The two people killed were in Al-Khiyyam and Aitaroun, the Lebanese health ministry said. 

NNA said that the latest wave of strikes hit villages in Nabatiyah and Mahmoudiya - as well as al-Adissa and Yaroun close to the border.

The latest round of airstrikes come after Israeli aircraft carried out nearly 300 strikes on multiple locations in eastern and southern Lebanon over the past 24 hours.

An Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman said that the strikes occurred after plans were detected for a Hezbollah rocket attack.
