A fighter in the ranks of the Hezbollah-affiliated Saraya Al Muqawama (Resistance Brigades), Fadi Kassem Kanaan, was killed Sunday morning in an Israeli drone attack targeting a motorcycle in the Jannam area, on the outskirts of the town of Shebaa, in the Hasbaya district in southern Lebanon.

The Public Health Emergency Operations Center of the Ministry of Public Health issued a statement announcing that the Israeli army’s drone strike on a motorcycle killed a citizen and injured another person, who is in stable condition.

Moreover, Israeli warplanes attacked a house in the town of Dhayra, injuring a number of people.

A soldier from the Ghanaian contingent of UNIFIL was also wounded in an air strike that targeted a house on the Dhayra highway. The air strike targeted a house that had been bombed yesterday and the patrol was passing by at the same time.

Israeli reconnaissance and drone aircraft intensified their flights from last night until the early morning hours of Sunday over the border villages adjacent to the Blue Line in the western and central sectors, reaching the outskirts of the Litani River and the coastal area. Additionally, the outskirts of the towns of Aita al-Shaab and Ramya were targeted by Israeli shelling after midnight, with the Israelis launching flares over the villages in the districts of Tyre and Bint Jbeil.

Hezbollah claimed an attack on the Marj site this morning.

From the Israeli side, Channel 12 Israeli media reported that three rockets were launched from Lebanon towards Margaliot in the Upper Galilee, without causing any injuries. Moreover, Israeli media had previously indicated that sirens were heard in several northern settlements.

Furthermore, the newspaper Israel Hayom reported “suspicions that Hezbollah launched a reconnaissance drone to film the area around Netanyahu’s private residence in Caesarea.”

“Fighter jets were dispatched to the area, but they were unable to locate the drone,” the newspaper added. Israel Hayom also quoted the Israeli army as saying that “the suspicion of a drone near Netanyahu’s residence in Caesarea was likely a false alarm.”
