Lebanon's Health Ministry said an Israeli drone strike on a car in the Hermel district near the Syrian border wounded five Syrian nationals, including two women, and one Lebanese national. Israel's military said it struck a Syrian operative it alleged was directed by Iran and planning attacks against Israeli forces in southern Syria.
Why it matters
The strike extends Israeli military action into northeastern Lebanon near the Syrian border, an area largely spared attacks since the June Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.
