Ten people from one family were killed and five others injured after an Israeli air strike hit their home in southern Lebanese town of Daoudiya, Lebanon's National News Agency reported on Tuesday.

Israel has intensified its air strikes across Lebanon since early last week, marking the most extensive Israeli military action in the country since 2006.

On Friday, the Israeli military killed Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in an air strike targeting the militant group's command headquarters in Beirut's southern suburbs.

On late Monday, the Israeli military announced that it had launched "a focused and limited" ground campaign against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.
