An Israeli strike on southern Lebanon killed one person on Saturday, according to the Ministry of Public Health – the latest attack despite the ceasefire.
In a statement, the Ministry said that an “Israeli enemy” drone strike on a car in Kounine killed one man, according to a preliminary toll.
The Israeli military did not immediately comment on the incident.
The attack comes a day after Israel killed a woman and wounded 25 other people in strikes across the south.
The National News Agency reported that the woman was killed in an Israeli drone strike on an apartment in Nabatieh.
Israeli military spokesman Avichay Adraee said on social media that the army “did not target any civilian building.”
The Friday attacks included a “wave of successive heavy strikes” in the Nabatieh region, which injured seven people, according to the NNA.
The Israeli military said it “identified rehabilitation attempts made by Hezbollah beforehand and struck terror infrastructure sites in the area.”
Adraee said the civilian building “was hit by a rocket that was inside the (fire and defense array) site and launched and exploded as a result of the strike.”
Israel has repeatedly bombed its northern neighbor despite the November ceasefire that aimed to end over a year of hostilities with Hezbollah.
Israel was required to fully withdraw its troops from the country, but has kept them in five locations in South Lebanon that it deems strategic.
