Overview
- Lebanon's Health Ministry reported five dead, including three children, after a drone hit a motorcycle and a car with two missiles in Bint Jbeil, wounding two others including the mother.
- Nabih Berri said four victims — the three children and their father — held U.S. citizenship, and U.S. Embassy officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
- President Joseph Aoun, in New York for the UN General Assembly, condemned the strike as a massacre and urged international pressure for an Israeli withdrawal in line with the November 27, 2024 declaration.
- The Israeli military offered no immediate comment, while Israel typically says it targets Hezbollah militants or infrastructure, and Hezbollah has publicly acknowledged only one cross-border firing since the ceasefire.
- Lebanese authorities cite roughly 4,500 ceasefire violations and warn that ongoing strikes risk stalling disarmament efforts, after a war that killed about 4,000 people in Lebanon and displaced residents in the south and east.
