One person was killed in an Israeli drone strike that targeted a motorbike in Ain Qana in Iqlim Al-Tuffah on Wednesday.

The Israeli army claimed that the man killed, Issa Karbala, was a unit commander with Hezbollah's al-Radwan force and had been "involved in moving weapons inside Lebanon" and "advancing terrorist plots against Israel."

Earlier this week, violent Israeli airstrikes targeted open areas and valleys in south Lebanon, with Israel saying it targeted Hezbollah "infrastructure".

On Monday and Tuesday, Israeli surveillance drones heavily overflew over Beirut and its suburbs, sparking concern among residents.

Despite a ceasefire reached in November last year, Israel has kept up its strikes, usually saying it is targeting Hezbollah sites and operatives. It is also still occupying five hills in south Lebanon that it deems "strategic."
