Israeli occupation forces carried out multiple drone and air strikes across south Lebanon on Friday, killing three civilians and injuring another in blatant violation of the November 2024 ceasefire.
An Israeli drone strike on Friday targeted a vehicle in the southern Lebanese town of Zawtar al-Gharbiya, in the Nabatieh district, killing one civilian and injuring another, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
The ministry confirmed that the strike, carried out by an Israeli occupation drone, hit the moving vehicle, resulting in one death and one injury.
Additional Strikes in Toul and Khiam
In a separate attack, two Lebanese civilians were killed when an Israeli airstrike struck a vehicle in the nearby town of Toul, also in the Nabatieh district.
According to the Health Ministry, the missile directly hit the car, causing severe destruction and damaging surrounding property. The attack is the latest in a series of Israeli violations of the November 27, 2024, ceasefire agreement.

Earlier on Friday, Al Mayadeen reported that machine-gun fire was directed from the newly established Israeli Hamames military position—located inside Lebanese territory—toward Wadi al-Asafir, south of Khiam. The town also came under two consecutive drone strikes at dawn, targeting a bulldozer operating in the area.
Health authorities confirmed the casualties from the Zawtar al-Gharbiya and Toul strikes, warning that Israeli escalation continues to endanger civilians along Lebanon’s southern border.
Ceasefire Violations Continue
Despite the standing ceasefire, Israeli occupation forces continue to carry out air raids and artillery bombardments on towns and villages across south Lebanon, striking civilian areas and infrastructure.
On Wednesday, an Israeli drone attack on Ain Qana killed one civilian, adding to the growing list of Israeli operations that breach the ceasefire.

In recent days, multiple Israeli drones and reconnaissance aircraft have violated Lebanese airspace over Beirut and its southern suburb, flying at low altitude and circling near the presidential palace in Baabda—marking the most sustained aerial activity over the capital since the ceasefire took effect.
On October 20, Israeli warplanes also launched air raids on the outskirts of Jarmaq and al-Mahmoudiyah, while forces stationed at the al-Summaqah outpost shelled the outskirts of Kfar Chouba.
Ongoing Israeli attacks across south Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley, and Beirut’s southern suburb have resulted in dozens of casualties and widespread damage to civilian infrastructure. Since the ceasefire in November 2024, more than 270 Lebanese civilians have been killed in Israeli strikes.
