The IDF says it is investigating after an airstrike targeting suspected Hezbollah operatives in the Nabatieh area of southern Lebanon on Saturday killed civilians.
Lebanon’s health ministry reported that a Syrian man and his 12-year-old daughter were killed by Israeli drone strikes while riding a motorcycle in Nabatieh.
In response to a query by The Times of Israel, the IDF says that it had identified several suspects leaving a building known to be used by Hezbollah for military activity.
“To remove the threat, troops carried out precise strikes on the suspects near the building,” the military says.
The IDF says it is aware of civilians harmed by the strike, adding that the incident is under further investigation.
