BEIRUT: An Israeli strike in south Lebanon on Monday killed one person, the first deadly strike since the announcement of a deal to end the US-Israeli war against Iran on all fronts, including Lebanon.
“Enemy drone aircraft targeted a car at the Kfar Tibnit roundabout, leading to the death of its driver,” the National News Agency said, referring to a village near the city of Nabatieh.
Hezbollah said it had repelled an Israeli force that was trying to ‘advance’ in southern Lebanon, while Iran’s Press TV announced on X that one of its journalists had been wounded by an Israeli drone strike in southern Lebanon.
Fighting in southern Lebanon, however, has eased after the US-Iran deal to end the wider conflict was announced. Lebanese authorities warned displaced people not to rush home as Israel said it would keep troops in the south.
