One person was killed in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon on Sunday, in the latest breach of a ceasefire agreement in place since November 2024, the Health Ministry said, Anadolu reports.
 
A ministry statement said the fatality occurred in the strike that hit an area between Al-Sawwaneh and Khirbet Selm in Bint Jbeil.
 
The state news agency NNA reported that an Israeli drone fired three missiles into a pickup truck in the area.
 
NNA said Israeli drones also flew at low altitude over the Tyre district and its nearby areas, the Nabatieh province, the Iqlim Al-Tuffah region, and some parts of Bint Jbeil.
 
Israeli army forces also carried out a combing operation with heavy weaponry on the outskirts of Alma Al-Shaab of Tyre.
 
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli army on the strike.
 
Tensions have been mounting in southern Lebanon for weeks, with the Israeli army intensifying near-daily air raids inside Lebanese territory on claims of targeting Hezbollah members and infrastructure.
 
The Israeli army has killed more than 4,000 people and injured nearly 17,000 in its attacks on Lebanon, which began in October 2023 and turned into a full-scale offensive in September 2024.
