Two Lebanese civilians killed in Israeli strike on southern village

BEIRUT (Palestine Foundation Information Center) An Israeli strike killed a Lebanese father and son Tuesday in a southern village, the Lebanese health ministry and state media said, the latest deaths despite a November ceasefire.

A second son was also wounded in the strike in Shebaa, the state-run National News Agency reported.

“An Israeli enemy drone carried out a strike in the village of Shebaa, killing two people and wounding one,” a health ministry statement said.

The Israeli army continues to carry out near-daily strikes on Lebanon despite a ceasefire agreement between Hezbollah and Tel Aviv that sought to halt more than a year of attacks on the Arab country.

Under the agreement, Israel was to withdraw all its forces from south Lebanon, but despite the deal, these forces have remained at five south Lebanon positions.
