Israel launches fresh strikes on southern Lebanon

Israel launched strikes on the main commercial market street of Nabaiteh, a major city in southern Lebanon, the country's state-run National News Agency said. 

Videos posted on social media show fires raging in the night and buildings collapsed into piles of rubble. 

Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron told Lebanon’s parliament speaker and Hezbollah interlocutor, Nabih Berri, that Hezbollah most "immediately" stop its missile attacks for a ceasefire to be implemented now. 

Macron has called for an arms embargo on Israel.
