Israeli air strike kills one person in southern Lebanon

At least one person has been confirmed killed by Lebanon’s Health Ministry after an Israeli air strike targeted a vehicle on the road connecting Sidon and Tyre in the southern part of the country.

Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) reported that an Israeli drone targeted the car in the Nabatieh district, but the Israeli army has not commented yet.

Footage verified by Al Jazeera showed the arrival of rescue teams to the targeted location and a car burning on the side of the road.


Israel says PFLP official assassinated in Lebanon strike

The Israeli army and Shin Bet say in a joint statement that they have killed the head of the military and security department of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine in Syria. The strike was carried out in Lebanon, they said.

The military released an aerial video of the attack on a vehicle in the Bekaa Valley, saying it killed the “senior Syrian terrorist” who was allegedly involved with other Palestinian groups as well.

The statement identified the man as Mohammad Washah, also known as Abu Khalil, and said his predecessor was killed in an assassination in September.
