A Lebanese civilian was martyred on Sunday in a drone strike carried out by the Israeli occupation on the town of Aita al-Shaab in the Bint Jbeil district, southern Lebanon, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent.
Lebanon’s National News Agency said the strike targeted a vehicle inside the town. In a separate incident, an Israeli reconnaissance aircraft dropped a bomb near the historic spring in the town of Pdaisseh, also in the south.
The latest attack comes as the Israeli occupation continues its violations of the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, repeatedly targeting civilian areas and infrastructure.
Escalation follows deadly strikes
Israeli occupation forces renewed their aggression on Lebanon on Saturday with a series of airstrikes, targeting areas in southern and eastern Lebanon, in a continued violation of the ceasefire agreement.
According to Al Mayadeen's correspondent, a series of strikes hit highland areas surrounding the towns of Tarayya and Shmestar in the Bekaa region, eastern Lebanon.
In the south, Al Mayadeen's correspondent stated that Israeli warplanes carried out raids on the Jabal al-Rafee area, the outskirts of the town of Sojod, and the al-Naqra valley near the town of Kfar Hamam.
According to our correspondent, airstrikes also targeted wooded highlands in Iqlim al-Tuffah, al-Jarmaq, al-Mahmoudiya, and Kfar Hamam in successive waves. The al-Jabbour area also came under Israeli attacks.
Concurrently, Israeli media reported that its Air Force was conducting a wave of airstrikes in the Bekaa and Nabatieh regions.
Following the massive attacks, an Israeli drone targeted a car on a side road between Majdal Selm and Shaqra.
