Israeli military strikes in southern Lebanon on Tuesday killed eight people, including a father and his two children, according to corroborated reports from multiple news sources. Hezbollah fired rockets at northern Israel on the same day. U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that Israel and Hezbollah had agreed to dial back fighting, though reports confirm that hostilities continued. A discrepancy exists in the death toll: while several sources report eight killed, one account states five were killed in strikes on the same day and location, without resolving the difference.

According to a report by Bluesky, Trump asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to attack Beirut to prevent further escalation. Hindustan Times reported that Trump said Israel 'does as I say' when questioned about his ability to stop further attacks on Lebanon. The Hindu reported that Israel threatened to strike Beirut's southern suburbs on June 1, prompting thousands to flee the area. Lebanese authorities reported over 4,246 deaths since March due to the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, according to Premium Times.

Iranian news agencies reported that Iran cut off communication with mediators facilitating ceasefire talks. Another round of ceasefire negotiations began Tuesday in Washington, according to English.aawsat.com. Lebanese negotiators sought a full ceasefire to prevent future attacks, while Tehran stated it wants any deal to end fighting in Lebanon. English.aawsat.com also reported that a ceasefire agreement begun in April has not halted hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.
