One citizen was killed following an Israeli drone strike targeting a vehicle in the town of Brital, in eastern Lebanon, the Lebanese Ministry of Health confirmed Tuesday.
According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent, the attack was part of a broader escalation in the region, with an Israeli drone launching a raid involving three missiles along the Baalbek–Rayak international road, an area that had previously seen limited aerial aggression.
Meanwhile, in southern Lebanon, Israeli assaults also intensified. Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported that an Israeli reconnaissance aircraft detonated a drone that had crashed earlier on the outskirts of the town of Kfar Chouba. The incident raised concerns over the increasing use of drones and unmanned systems across both eastern and southern Lebanese territories.
