An Israeli strike in Lebanon killed one person on Wednesday, with Israel saying it targeted a Hezbollah operative, the first such death since its troops withdrew from most of the border area a day earlier.
“An enemy drone struck a vehicle… in the town of Aita al-Shaab,” near the southern border, the official National News Agency (NNA) said, reporting one person killed.
The Israeli military said that an “aircraft operated to remove a threat with a strike on a Hezbollah operative identified handling weaponry” in the same area.
The NNA said one person was wounded in the Wazzani border region after Israeli forces opened fire there. It also reported Israeli automatic weapon fire towards homes near the town of Shebaa.
