Tensions between Hezbollah and Israel have continued to escalate since the assassination of a senior Hezbollah official in Jwaya on Tuesday.
An Israeli raid targeted a motorcycle in Bint Jbeil on Saturday morning, killing one person and wounding another. The motorcycle caught fire on the roadside at the intersection of Bint Jbeil and Maroun al-Ras, before Civil Defense teams could extinguish it.
Later Saturday, Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad militant group, announced the death of one of its combatants, Zuhweir Jalbout, a Palestinian, in the Israeli attack that targeted the motorcycle in southern Lebanon.
As part of its ongoing reprisals following the elimination of senior Hezbollah official Taleb Sami Abdallah on Tuesday evening , Hezbollah announced that it had targeted the Meron military base in northern Israel "with guided missiles, destroying some of its equipment and radars."

Additionally, it was reported that a woman was wounded by a bullet following the Israeli army's sweep of Wazzani. She was taken to Marjeyoun hospital for treatment.
On Saturday, the Israeli army said "two projectiles were fired from Lebanon toward the IDF (army) Aerial Control Unit in the area of Meron in northern Israel", reporting "no injuries or damage to the unit's capabilities".
It also said "several aerial targets were identified crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory" and falling in the Goren area, adding there were no reported injuries but that "a fire broke out".
