BEIRUT, October 24. /TASS/. At least seven people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the settlement of el-Khodr in the Beqaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, the Janoubia news website reports.

At least ten people are said to have been injured.

The airstrike targeted an apartment building near a mosque. Eye witnesses say that rescuers continue to remove the rubble so the death toll could grow.

Earlier, an Israeli drone attacked a car carrying members of Hezbollah militia on the Beirut-Damascus highway; the strike killed two fighters.
