One person was killed in an alleged Israeli strike on a motorcycle in southern Lebanon, according to Lebanon’s official National News Agency.

“The strike targeting a motorcycle in Naqoura killed one person and wounded another,” it says after earlier reporting an “enemy drone strike” in the area.

It does not say whether the casualty is a civilian or a terror operative.

NNA also reports that two soldiers needed to be treated for phosphorus inhalation following an Israeli strike near a military position in the border town of Markaba.
