Four US citizens, including three children, were among five people killed Sunday by an Israeli air strike on southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese government.

Israel’s military said it had “struck and eliminated” a Hezbollah operator in the southern town of Bint Jbeil, but acknowledged that “several uninvolved civilians” were also killed in the strike.

“The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and operates to minimize harm as much as possible. The incident is under review,” it said in a statement.

Among those killed were a father and three of his children, who were US citizens, according to Lebanon’s Speaker of the Parliament, Nabih Berri, in a statement mourning their deaths.
