Standard

On 18 September 2026, WAFA citing Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) reported that Israeli artillery shelling of the town of Shaqra (also rendered Chaqra/Shuqra) in the Bint Jbeil district of southern Lebanon injured two civilians. Al Jazeera, citing NNA, said the wounded were taken to Tebnin (Tibnin) hospital and that shells also fell in Wadi Nahla on the outskirts. The same WAFA item also noted Israeli activity at Deir Mimas and renewed shelling of Mansouri and Majdal Zoun — those strands are covered by other live catalog events and are not merged here.

Why it matters

Documented civilian injuries from Israeli artillery in Bint Jbeil with a second international wire naming the receiving hospital.

  • Injuries: Best 2 · Confidence: Probable · Evidence: Two Lebanese injured in Israeli shelling in southern Lebanon · Two civilians injured and taken to hospital per NNA via WAFA; no fatalities reported for Shaqra in that item.

Verification: Probable

Evidence: Two Lebanese injured in Israeli shelling in southern Lebanon, Al Jazeera: two injured in Chaqra/Shuqra shelling taken to Tebnin hospital (NNA)

PROBABLE 0K/2inj via WAFA citing NNA plus Al Jazeera (AFP/Anadolu) citing NNA for Chaqra/Shuqra → Tebnin hospital. No MoPH named victims in the English items. Distinct from Mansouri/Deir Mimas/Mays al-Jabal live strands.
