One person was killed and several others were injured in a fresh Israeli strike on a vehicle in southern Lebanon on Monday, according to media reports.
The official news agency NNA said that an Israeli drone hit a car near the Baisariyah town of the Sidon district.
No further details were reported regarding the identity of the deceased citizen or the number of injuries.
The agency also reported Israeli drones flying over the Iqlim Al-Tuffah region at medium altitude.

Two more people lost their lives in Israeli strikes on Sunday.
Tensions have been mounting in southern Lebanon for weeks, with the Israeli army intensifying near-daily air raids inside Lebanese territory on claims of targeting Hezbollah members and infrastructure.
The Israeli army has killed more than 4,000 people and injured nearly 17,000 in its attacks on Lebanon, which began in October 2023 and turned into a full-scale offensive in September 2024.
