Caption: Israeli Strikes In Southern Lebanon Kill At Least 11, State Media Say. Israeli air strikes on the southern Lebanese village of Kfar Rumman have killed at least 11 people, according to Lebanese state media. Nine people, including two children, were reportedly killed when a strike destroyed a three-storey residential building shortly after midnight. Two paramedics were killed in a separate Israeli strike targeting a car, Lebanon's National News Agency reported. The Israeli military said it was looking into reports of the casualties from the latest strikes. The attacks followed Israeli strikes on Sunday that killed seven people in southern Lebanon. Israel said those earlier strikes were retaliation for drone attacks by the armed group Hezbollah against its troops in occupied areas of Lebanon. Lebanese President Joseph Aoun described the latest attacks as a "dangerous escalation" in tensions between Israel and Hezbollah. Aoun warned that the escalation risked undermining the U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreed in June to end the conflict. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
