Fragile Ceasefire: Israel Reports Killing of Hezbollah Commander in Southern Lebanon

The Israeli army has killed a high-ranking commander of the Lebanese Hezbollah militia in an attack in Deir al-Sahrani, southern Lebanon. The commander was reportedly involved in several attacks on Israeli soldiers, including those using explosive drones. The Israeli army said the attack was a response to Hezbollah operations against Israeli soldiers in the security zone, where three Israeli soldiers were severely injured in a drone attack.

At least 11 people were killed and 19 injured in two Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon on Saturday, according to the Lebanese health ministry.
