Israeli forces have carried out varying degrees of destruction in 39 villages in southern Lebanon since a ceasefire in the war with Hezbollah last week, a senior Hezbollah-allied politician said on Monday.
Ali Hassan Khalil, a top aide to Lebanon's Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, said the powerful explosions carried out by Israeli forces had destroyed civilian homes in the south and this amounted to "a clear war crime".
The Israeli military has said it is acting against Hezbollah infrastructure in the south.
