One killed in Israeli drone strike on Baysariyeh
One person was killed Monday in an Israeli drone strike that targeted his car on the Baysariyeh-Sarafand road in south Lebanon, putting the toll from Israeli strikes since Saturday at six.
Israeli airstrikes later targeted al-Qatrani, al-Mahmoudiyeh and al-Jarmaq in south Lebanon, a pickup truck in Hermel, and the Shaara region in the Bekaa.
On Sunday, Israeli strikes killed two people in south Lebanon, one in Houmin in the Nabatieh district and another person on the Sawaneh-Kherbet Selem road.
On Saturday, Israeli strikes killed three people, including two brothers, and wounded several more, with Israel claiming the brothers were arms smugglers from a group affiliated with Hezbollah. Another strike on a car in the southern village of Baraashit killed one person and wounded four.
Despite a ceasefire reached in November last year, Israel has kept up its strikes, usually saying it is targeting Hezbollah sites and operatives. It is also still occupying five hills in south Lebanon that it deems "strategic."
