Lebanon says one killed in Israeli strike on southern Lebanon

BEIRUT, Lebanon — Lebanon’s health ministry says an Israeli strike in south Lebanon killed one person, a day after a similar raid killed two.

“The drone strike launched by the Israeli enemy on a vehicle in Wadi al-Hujair killed one person,” the ministry says in a statement, referring to an area around 12 kilometres (seven miles) from the border.

The ministry also says a 17-year-old wounded in an Israeli strike in south Lebanon’s Aitaroun a day earlier had died, bringing the toll in that raid to two dead.

The Israeli military had said the strike killed a Hezbollah operative.
