Three Israeli drone strikes on vehicles south of Beirut have killed four people.
A series of airstrikes on southern Lebanon killed at least 13, including a man and his 12-year-old daughter, according to state media and the Health Ministry.
The strikes on Saturday mark another escalation since a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah went into effect on April 17.
Both sides have continued daily attacks despite the truce.
The Health Ministry denounced the violence, calling it a violation of international humanitarian law.
Lebanon and Israel have been in a state of war since 1948, with talks scheduled in Washington starting Thursday.
