Two people reported killed in an Israeli drone strike in southern Lebanon this morning were Hezbollah members, according to the Saudi-owned Al Hadath news outlet.

Lebanese rescue services earlier today said the drone hit the southern Lebanese town of Shaqra, killing two people and wounding three, including a child.

This was reportedly the first deadly Israeli strike on Lebanon since a Hezbollah rocket attack on Saturday killed 12 children in the Golan Heights.

The IDF has not yet commented on the alleged drone strike.
