Hezbollah says clashed with Israeli troops north of Lebanon's Litani river

Hezbollah said its fighters clashed with Israeli forces in a town north of the Litani river on Wednesday, a day after Israel's military said it was expanding its ground operations in the country's south.

In a statement, the group said its fighters "clashed with the enemy forces at point-blank range" in the town of Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, located at the edge of an Israeli-declared "yellow line" in south Lebanon where its soldiers have been operating.
