Sky News Arabia correspondent reported that an Israeli drone targeted a car on the Naqoura Road in southern Lebanon, on Saturday morning.
Preliminary information indicated that 3 people were killed in the attack, which took place in the Al-Hamra area in Naqoura and was carried out with 3 missiles fired by the drone.
Israeli Channel 12 reported that a Lebanese Hezbollah official was killed in the incident.
Pictures spread on social media platforms showed the targeted car engulfed in flames and charred.
The Lebanese Hezbollah and the Israeli army have been exchanging fire across the border since last October 7, in a conflict that has been steadily worsening and raising fears of a broader escalation.
A few days ago, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant indicated that Israel plans to increase attacks on Hezbollah, even if a ceasefire is reached in Gaza.
But Gallant also left the door open to reaching a diplomatic agreement to achieve Israel’s goal of the withdrawal of Hezbollah fighters from the border, and the return of tens of thousands of Israelis who fled the region.
The fighting, the worst between Hezbollah and Israel since 2006, has displaced tens of thousands of people in Lebanon.
