An Israeli drone strike killed two people in a car near the southern Lebanese town of Bint Jbeil. The Israeli military stated that the attack targeted a Hezbollah member, accusing the group of failing to adhere to a ceasefire that was established in late 2024. This incident is part of a series of ongoing truce violations that have resulted in over 300 deaths in Lebanon, including 127 civilians, since the agreement began. Despite international pressure for disarmament, Hezbollah has refused to give up its weapons, leaving the Lebanese government in a difficult position as regional tensions continue to escalate.
