Israeli drone attack targets car in southern Lebanon, local media reports

An Israeli drone attack on Monday targeted a car near al-Bisariya in southern Lebanon, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported.

Despite a ceasefire that came into force in November last year, Israel continues to carry out near-daily strikes in southern Lebanon. At least four people were killed over the weekend in separate Israeli drone strikes in southern Lebanon.

On 30 October, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun instructed the commander of the army to "confront any Israeli incursion into southern Lebanon", after Israeli forces crossed the border, entered a municipal building in the southern town of Blida and killed an employee. 

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemned the incident, calling it “a blatant attack on the institutions and sovereignty of the Lebanese state”.
