Terrorist group Hezbollah claims that five of its fighters were killed by Israeli airstrikes on the border with Lebanon.<\/p>\n

The killed men include Abbas Raad, son of the head of Hezbollah’s parliamentary bloc Mohammed Raad, with the group saying in a statement he was “martyred on the road to Jerusalem” – a phrase they have been using when one of its members dies.<\/p>\n

Back up by Iran, skirmishes between Hezbollah and Israel have been escalating since the October 7 attacks by Hamas.<\/p>\n

Since the cross-border exchanges began, 107 people have been killed on the Lebanese side, according to an AFP tally – at least 75 of which are Hezbollah fighters, and at least 14 civilians.<\/p>\n

The notable death of a Hezbollah agent comes as a four-day truce agreed between Israel and Hamas to exchange hostages is delayed until Friday.<\/p>\n
