The agency, citing the Lebanese health ministry, said five people were killed in a raid on the town of Sohmor in Western Bekaa, including a child, a woman and two elderly people. In a separate incident, two Palestinian nationals were killed in the Rashidieh area of the Tyre district in southern Lebanon, according to the agency.

Lebanon conservation pioneer dies from injuries after Israeli strike Lebanon conservation pioneer dies from injuries after Israeli strike Tributes have been paid to Lebanese marine ecologist Mona Khalil, who died on Friday from injuries sustained in an Israeli strike on her home in the southern village of al-Mansouri. Khalil was widely known for leading efforts to protect one of Lebanon's most important nesting sites for endangered sea turtles and for her environmental work along the country's coastline. The Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon described Khalil as "one of Lebanon's most dedicated environmental defenders and a tireless champion of sea turtle conservation". Environmental group Green Southerners said her conservation programme at the Orange House "inspired generations of Lebanese to value and protect their natural heritage and coastal ecosystems". Speaking to AFP, Julien Jreissati of Greenpeace Middle East and North Africa said her death was a loss felt not only by her family but also "for the environmental movement in Lebanon and the region". It is with profound sadness that Green Southerners mourns the passing of Mona Khalil, a pioneering environmental defender who died from injuries sustained in an Israeli strike on her home on the Mansouri coast. pic.twitter.com/X7rnmreLEt — Green Southerners الجنوبيون الخضر (@GreenSoutherns) June 19, 2026

Iran shuts Strait of Hormuz as Israel tests MOU with Lebanon strikes Iran shuts Strait of Hormuz as Israel tests MOU with Lebanon strikes.
US forces monitoring Strait of Hormuz to ensure it stays open US forces monitoring Strait of Hormuz to ensure it stays open The US military on Saturday denied Iran's claims that it had closed the Strait of Hormuz, saying the critical waterway remained open and that US forces were monitoring the situation to ensure that it continued. "Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz," US Central Command spokesperson Navy Captain Tim Hawkins told Reuters. "Traffic continues to flow, and US forces are monitoring the situation to ensure this remains the case." Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps declared the Strait of Hormuz shut earlier on Saturday and warned ships not to approach the waterway, casting new doubt on the future of a ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran meant to pave the way for in-depth peace talks.

Iran recloses Strait of Hormuz after Israeli attacks on Lebanon Iran recloses Strait of Hormuz after Israeli attacks on Lebanon Iran announced that it had once again closed the Strait of Hormuz over Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon, according to a military command statement carried by state media. “It is hereby announced that the Strait of Hormuz will be closed to vessel traffic,” the Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters said in remarks carried by Iran’s Mehr state news agency. “It is noted that this first step is a response to the enemy's breach of promise, and if the aggression continues, further steps will be planned and taken to force the enemy to comply with its obligations." The decision was later confirmed in a statement by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which warned vessels not to approach the strait or risk their security being compromised. The IRGC cited Israeli attacks on Lebanon and US violations of the ceasefire agreement as reasons for the closure.
