Fighting continues in Lebanon, state media says
Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon on Saturday killed at least seven people, including two children, hours after reports emerged of a ceasefire agreement and threatening an interim agreement between the United States and Iran to end the war in the Middle East.
Lebanon's National News Agency said the strikes hit the southern town of Nabatieh and nearby villages. At least seven people remained trapped under the rubble, it said. Lebanon's civil defense agency said 16 people were killed in the Nabatieh area, where an AFP photographer saw smoke rising over the city after strikes.
An Israeli military official said Hezbollah had fired more than 50 projectiles at Israeli forces in southern Lebanon overnight, prompting the military to start targeting the militant group there. The official spoke anonymously in line with regulations.
Hezbollah has not officially claimed any attacks on Israel or its troops in Lebanon since the ceasefire was announced.
Mediators were scrambling to halt the fighting between Israel and the militant Lebanese Hezbollah group, after a heavy exchange on Friday killed at least 47 people in Lebanon and four Israeli soldiers.

Iran says it has closed Strait of Hormuz over ceasefire breaches in Lebanon
Summary
• Iran said it would close the Strait of Hormuz to shipping, citing what iy called the US non-compliance with a war-ending agreement and renewed violence in Lebanon.
• Switzerland said diplomats from several countries had continued efforts at Bürgenstock to maintain dialogue on implementing the US-Iran memorandum of understanding, but said confidentiality prevented it from identifying those present or discussing the talks.
• Trump said on Saturday Iran had "got away with 'murder' for 47 years" until he took office and had since been "completely defeated militarily," while criticizing Barack Obama and Joe Biden as weak leaders.
• US and Iranian envoys are moving toward Switzerland after a planned Friday meeting was canceled, raising expectations of possible Iran-US talks even as no new date has been announced.
• Lebanon remains a central test for the memorandum, with Iran and Hezbollah saying talks cannot advance without a broader ceasefire and a halt to Israeli attacks.
• The Strait of Hormuz is reopening under Iranian controls, with Iran saying vessels still require seeking permits as shipping monitors lower their threat assessment for the waterway.
• Trump and Vance are defending the deal at home, saying relief can be adjusted based on Tehran’s conduct, while Democrats and Republican hawks remain divided.
