Israel and Hezbollah have exchanged attacks on Saturday, AP reports. An Israeli attack on Lebanon killed at least ten Syrian citizens, according to the country's health authority.

At least ten dead in air raids on residential buildings in Lebanon

At least ten people have been killed and five injured in an Israeli air raid on a residential building in Nabatieh, in southern Lebanon, last night, writes AFP.

Israel's military told Reuters that the target was one of Hezbollah's weapons depots.
