At least 14 people have been killed and 15 others wounded in an Israeli air strike on the northern Lebanese town of Ain Yaaqoub.

According to the town's mayor, the strike, which marks the northernmost point in Lebanon, hit a building where 30 people were residing including Syrian refugees. He said some people were still trapped under the rubble.

Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that "there will be no ceasefire" in Lebanon.

He also hinted at a possible military strike against Iran, stating that Iran's nuclear facilities are now more vulnerable than ever, according to the daily Yedioth Ahronoth.

Yesterday, at least 23 people were killed in a similar strike about 15km from the Capital Beirut.

New figures released by the Lebanese Ministry of health are saying as of yesterday, at least 3,243 people had been killed since this escalation started in Lebanon and among those killed, at least 200 children.
