One person was killed and another critically injured on Thursday in an Israeli drone strike targeting a car in southern Lebanon, according to Lebanese state media, despite a US-Iran understanding aimed at ending the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, taking effect.

The strike hit a vehicle near the Kfar Tebnit-Arnon roundabout in the Nabatieh area, Lebanon’s National News Agency reported.

In a separate attack, an Israeli drone dropped a bomb on the southern Lebanese town of Beit Yahoun, wounding two people, the agency said.

The incident came amid continued Israeli strikes on Lebanon despite a recent understanding between Washington and Tehran aimed at ending hostilities following attacks launched by Israel and the US against Iran on February 28.

Iranian officials have repeatedly said that halting Israeli military actions across regional fronts, particularly in Lebanon, is among the key objectives of the memorandum of understanding between Tehran and Washington.

Israel continues to occupy areas in southern Lebanon, some for decades and others since the latest conflict. During the recent military offensive, Israeli forces expanded their occupation more than 10 kilometres into Lebanese territory.
