Two people were martyred and two others were injured on Thursday in separate Israeli drone strikes targeting southern Lebanon, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent.

The first strike occurred in the town of Kfour, in the Nabatieh District, where an Israeli drone targeted a civilian car, killing one person and injuring two others. Lebanon’s Ministry of Health confirmed the casualties, stating that emergency teams responded to the scene.

Shortly after, a second Israeli airstrike hit a truck in the town of Naqoura, also in South Lebanon. One person was martyred in that attack, according to our correspondent.

Not an isolated incident

The Israeli occupation carried out a series of airstrikes on Tuesday targeting several areas in Lebanon, including Bouday, the vicinity of Shmestar, and Wadi Umm Ali in the western Baalbek district, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent.

The Israeli occupation's deadly airstrike in Wadi Faara, northern Bekaa, targeted a civilian water drilling site and killed 12 people, including seven Syrian nationals. Several others were injured in the attack.

Continuous Israeli aggression

These latest strikes are part of a broader campaign of continuous Israeli aggression against areas in the south, the Bekaa, and Beirut’s Southern Suburb, while "Israel" continues to occupy five border points in southern Lebanon in an ongoing violation of the ceasefire agreement.
