On 10 April 2026, Israeli airstrikes hit southern Lebanon, including the city of Nabatieh, where a government building / State Security office complex was struck.

At least 13 Lebanese state security personnel were killed in Nabatieh, according to Lebanese authorities and presidential statements. Some reports indicate at least 8 security personnel killed in Nabatieh specifically, within a broader toll of at least 21 killed across Lebanon that day.

The strike hit a government building in Nabatieh, causing extensive destruction and fire. The personnel killed were described as members of Lebanon’s state security forces / internal security apparatus.

The Nabatieh strike was part of a wider wave of Israeli attacks across Lebanon on 10 April 2026, following major escalations earlier in April. The broader campaign involved continued strikes across southern Lebanon and other regions, with dozens of casualties reported nationwide that day.

Lebanese officials, including the president, condemned the strike as targeting state institutions.

Israel has not issued a detailed public response specifically addressing this incident (as of the cited reports).
