The Israeli Occupation Forces killed one person in a drone strike in southern Lebanon, as the death toll of a previous strike also in southern Lebanon has risen.

The Lebanese Ministry of Public Health's Public Health Emergency Operations Center announced the martyrdom of one person in the raid by the Israeli occupation, which targeted a car in Wadi al-Hujair, southern Lebanon, on Wednesday.

The Center also noted that the death toll from yesterday's Israeli occupation raid on a car in the town of Aitaroun has risen to two martyrs after a 17-year-old boy succumbed to his severe injuries.

It also added stated that recent Israeli attacks targeted the Al-Risala Scout Center in Tayr Harfa during a nighttime raid, calling the assault a violation of international norms and laws.

Meanwhile, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights reported on Tuesday that "Israel" has killed at least 71 civilians in its continued attacks on Lebanon since last year’s ceasefire took effect on November 27, noting that the victims included 14 women and 9 children as "fear persists among civilians, with over 92,000 people still unable to return home."

The Israeli occupation has been consistently violating the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, repeatedly attacking Lebanese citizens in numerous airstrikes.

'Israel' continues aggression against Lebanon

An Israeli helicopter on April 9 struck a house in Yater, southern Lebanon, with two missiles on April 9 after the occupation issued warnings to the residents of the building, threatening them with imminent bombardments and forcing them out of their house, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent.

Meanwhile, on April 8, Israeli occupation forces targeted a group of residents near the border in the town of Mays al-Jabal, leaving one civilian wounded, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent.

Two Lebanese citizens were killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a bulldozer in the town of Zebqin in southern Lebanon on April 6th, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported, while Israeli UAVs dropped stun grenades over al-Naqoura and between Rubb El-Thalathine and al-Taybeh.

In the midst of all these violations, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam announced that the government is deploying diplomatic efforts to liberate the occupied outposts which "Israel" established in southern Lebanon in complete violation of Lebanon's sovereignty.

Pointing to the relentless Israeli aerial surveillance, satellites and drones hovering over southern Lebanon, the Lebanese prime minister stressed that the occupied positions hold no military or strategic value, leaving no justification for the occupation forces’ continued presence.
