MBABANE:An Israeli drone strike has killed two people in southern Lebanon, according to the country’s Ministry of Public Health, a day after Israeli warplanes launched a series of deadly strikes on the country’s eastern Mountain range and south.
Aljazeera reported that, it’s a the latest in near-daily Israeli violations of the United States-brokered ceasefire between Israel and the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah that began in November.
The attack in the town of Toul in the Nabatieh district on Friday also injured two people, the ministry said. It did not provide details on their condition.
A security source told Al Jazeera that the drone fired a missile at a car, directly hitting the vehicle and causing it to catch fire.
The Israeli military said it attacked sites linked to Hezbollah, including “a military camp and a site for the production of precision missiles”, without providing evidence.
Later, the military claimed its forces killed Abbas Hassan Karky, whom it identifies as “the logistics commander of Hezbollah’s Southern Front headquarters”.
The attack was carried out in the Nabatieh area of southern Lebanon, the Israeli army said in a statement. There was no confirmation or comment from Hezbollah.
Separately, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported that the Israeli military carried out an air strike on the Kroum al-Marah neighbourhood in the southern district of Marjayoun with no injuries reported.
On Thursday, Israeli forces targeted the eastern region of Bekaa, killing two people, and later targeted Arabsalim in southern Lebanon, killing two others, including an elderly woman.
