BEIRUT, Dec. 14 (Xinhua) -- Three Hezbollah members were killed, and a fourth was wounded on Sunday in Israeli drone strikes in southern Lebanon, Lebanese officials and security sources said.
Lebanon's state-run National News Agency said an Israeli drone struck a motorcycle in the village of Yater in the Bint Jbeil district, killing one person and wounding another.
A second Israeli drone hit a car between the towns of Safad al-Battikh and Baraachit, also in the Bint Jbeil district, killing one person. A third person was killed in an Israeli airstrike on a car in the village of Jouaiyya, the agency said.
A Lebanese security source said all three people killed were members of Hezbollah.
The Israeli military said it had struck three Hezbollah militants in several areas of southern Lebanon.
"The militants were involved in attempts to re-establish Hezbollah's terror infrastructure, and their activities constituted a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon," it said, referring to a ceasefire that took effect in November 2024.
A ceasefire agreement between Hezbollah and Israel has been in force since Nov. 27, 2024.
Despite the deal, Israel has continued to carry out occasional strikes in Lebanon, saying they are aimed at eliminating Hezbollah threats. ■
