An Israeli strike on southern Lebanon killed one person on Saturday, the Lebanese health ministry said, in the latest attack on the area despite a nearly year-long ceasefire.
In a statement, the ministry said that the Israeli strike on a vehicle in Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, south Lebanon, killed one person.
The ministry also said that a grenade launched by an Israeli drone in the southern town of Shaqra wounded five people.
The Israeli military did not immediately comment on the incidents.
Lebanon's state-run National News Agency identified the killed man as Kamel Reda Qarnabash, saying he was driving his vehicle in Zawtar al-Sharqiyah when the strike hit.
The Israeli army said earlier on Saturday that it killed a Hezbollah member in a strike the day before on Froun, southern Lebanon.
"In a targeted strike the (Israeli army) eliminated a Hezbollah terrorist in the Froun area in southern Lebanon" on Friday, the military said in a statement.
It alleged the Hezbollah member had "advanced terror attacks against the State of Israel" and its forces.
