A Lebanese soldier succumbed to his wounds after being shot by Israeli occupation forces at the Fatima Gate in Kfar Kila, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in South Lebanon reported on Sunday.

Earlier, our correspondent said the soldier had been injured by Israeli gunfire in the southern town.

Later, the Lebanese Ministry of Health stated that Israeli attacks on civilians in Kfar Kila killed one soldier and injured two others, one of whom is in critical condition.

Additionally, contact has been lost with a Lebanese Army soldier who was on his way to the border town of Kfar Chouba, according to the statement.

On Saturday, the ministry announced that an Israeli airstrike targeting a vehicle in Khirbet Selem, in South Lebanon, killed one citizen and injured another.

"Israel" has maintained periodic strikes on Lebanese territory since a ceasefire agreement came into effect on November 27, 2024.

Although the Israeli occupation military was initially set to complete its withdrawal from Lebanon by January, it was granted an extension until February 18. However, it has maintained a military presence at five locations it considers "strategic".

A couple of days ago, the Lebanese Army Command stated that "the Israeli occupation continues its violations of Lebanon's sovereignty by land, sea, and air, with the latest incidents including a series of attacks targeting civilians in the south and the Bekaa region in eastern Lebanon, in addition to its ongoing occupation of Lebanese territory and repeated breaches of the land borders."

In its statement, the Lebanese Army warned that "Israel's persistent aggressions threaten the country's stability and negatively impact regional security," emphasizing that such actions "are in complete violation of the ceasefire agreement."

The army also announced that its military units "continue to facilitate the return of residents to the southern areas by clearing unexploded ordnance, removing debris, and reopening roads."

It confirmed that it is monitoring the situation and taking necessary measures in coordination with the Quintet Committee overseeing the ceasefire agreement and the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL).
