Lebanese authorities initially reported that two people had lost their lives in Sunday’s Israeli attack. However, the death toll was later updated after further attacks.
The Ministry of Health’s Public Health Emergency Operations Center reported that one person was killed in an Israeli attack on a car in Nakoura, a coastal border town in the southern Tire region.
Another death has occurred after a vehicle was hit by an air raid in the village of Navisit, east of Baalbek.
The Ministry of Health later announced that the attack occurred in the town of al-Hafir, also in the Baalbek region, and that Syrians were among the victims. Another Syrian was also injured in the attack.
Another man was injured when an Israeli unexploded ordnance exploded elsewhere in the town of Aitalun in Bint Jubail district.
Hours later, the United Nations peacekeeping force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) announced on Sunday afternoon that an Israeli drone had dropped a grenade near one of its patrols near the southern Lebanese town of Kafr Qira.
Israeli tanks then opened fire, but there were no injuries to personnel or damage to property, UNIFIL added.
In a statement posted on social media platform
Given the heavy losses during the 14-month war and the failure to achieve military objectives in the invasion of Lebanon, Israel had no choice but to accept a ceasefire with Hezbollah, which took effect on November 27, 2024.
Since the agreement was enacted, occupation forces have carried out numerous attacks, including airstrikes across Lebanon, in blatant disregard of the ceasefire.
Israeli forces also captured five key areas in southern Lebanon, including Rabneh, Mount Brat, Oweida Hill, Ajieh, and Hamamis Hill, located near the border.
Lebanon denounced the continued presence of Israeli troops as a violation of the ceasefire agreement and a pre-determined withdrawal schedule.
