Lebanon said 10 people were killed in Israeli strikes on Wednesday, including two rare strikes in the mountainous areas outside Hezbollah's traditional strongholds in the south and east. 

The health ministry said that an Israeli strike on the village of Joun in the Chouf mountains, southeast of Beirut, killed four people.

It said two other strikes killed three people in the village of Maaysra, north of Beirut, and three in Ain Qana in the south.
