Israeli strikes kill one, injure four in southern Lebanon amid ceasefire violations
ALBAWABA- One person was killed and four others injured on Monday following an Israeli air raid on the town of Khiyam in Lebanon's Marjayoun district, in yet another violation of the fragile ceasefire agreement that has been in place since late 2024. According to a statement by Lebanon's Public Health Emergency Operations Center, 'the Israeli enemy's raid on Khiyam led to the death of a wounded man due to the severity of his injuries,' while four others sustained various degrees of wounds. The escalation came as Lebanon's state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported the discovery of an Israeli spy device equipped with a camera and a drone in the town of Aytaroun, located in the southern governorate of Nabatiyeh. A Lebanese army statement confirmed that a specialized military unit dismantled the camouflaged device during ongoing engineering surveys in the region. The Israeli military also carried out artillery shelling between the towns of Maroun al-Ras and Yaroun in the Bint Jbeil district. Artillery and sound shells were fired toward the border towns of Ramiya and Ayta al-Shaab. Simultaneously, hostile Israeli reconnaissance drones, referred to by local media as "marches", flew at low altitudes over multiple areas, including Marjayoun, Nabatiyeh, Shukin, Arnoun, and Deir al-Zahrani. In a targeted strike, two Israeli drones dropped bombs on an excavator in the Fawara neighborhood of Yaroun, causing it to catch fire and sustain heavy damage. A separate drone dropped a stun grenade near the municipal stadium in Yaroun's Al-Sultana neighborhood, although no injuries were reported. Since the implementation of the ceasefire on November 27, 2024, between Israel and Hezbollah, the Israeli military has reportedly violated the agreement over 3,000 times, resulting in at least 267 deaths and 567 injuries, according to official Lebanese data. Despite a partial Israeli military withdrawal from southern Lebanon, five Lebanese hilltops captured during the last war remain under Israeli occupation, further fueling tensions along the volatile border region.

AI image of crashed jet falsely linked to Iran-Israel war
"The F-35 shot down by Iran. Much bigger than I thought," reads the Korean-language caption of an image shared on Threads on June 15, 2025. The image appears to show a massive fighter jet that has crashed in the desert and is missing its left wing. A crowd appears to have gathered around its nose. It circulated after Iranian state media said the country's forces had downed two Israeli fighter jets during a massive Israeli air raid on June 13 (archived link). An Israeli official rejected the report as "fake news" (archived link). The same image was shared on South Korean forum Aagag, and a wider crop appearing to show the plane next to a road surfaced in similar Threads and X posts as well as in other forums such as SVR Forum, Ruliweb, MLB Park and Inven. But the image has tell-tale signs of being AI generated, and the purported F-35 fighter jet does not match photos of the warplane. In the version that shows the plane next to a road, the people surrounding the aircraft appear to be as large as the buses and one vehicle appears to be fused to the road. Moreover, the shape and size of the purported crashed jet -- which according to manufacturer Lockheed Martin measures just under 16 metres (52 feet) -- differs from F-35s as seen in photos available in AFP's archives (archived link). An AFP photo of an Israeli F-35 also shows the symbol on its wing -- a Star of David on a circle -- is different to the symbol on the purported crashed jet's wing, which appears to be a star with a thick border. While generative AI technology is rapidly improving, visual inconsistencies persist and are the best way to identify fabricated content. The Iran-Israel conflict has triggered a wave of misinformation, which AFP has debunked here.
