Ankara: At least three people were killed in Israeli attacks in eastern and southern Lebanon on Wednesday despite a temporary ceasefire, Lebanese media reported. An Israeli drone hit the outskirts of al-Jbour in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, resulting in one fatality and injuring two others, as reported by the state-run National News Agency.
According to Anadolu Agency, two more people were killed in another airstrike targeting a car in Tayri, located in southern Lebanon. These incidents occurred despite a 10-day ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel that began on Friday.
Just a day after the ceasefire was implemented, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that Israel intends to maintain control over all areas it occupied in southern Lebanon. Since March 2, Israeli attacks on Lebanon have resulted in 2,294 deaths, 7,544 injuries, and the displacement of more than 1 million people, based on official figures.
