An Israeli airstrike on the southern Lebanese city of Arab Salim has resulted in the death of a woman and injuries to several other individuals, reported Lebanon's state news agency NNA. The woman's home in the city center was reportedly destroyed in the attack. According to NNA, she had recently married just two days before the incident.

Lebanese security sources indicated that at least 10 Israeli strikes occurred in the wider Nabatiyeh region. The Israeli military stated that the strikes were a response to two explosive-laden drones launched by the Iran-backed Hezbollah group against Israeli soldiers in southern Lebanon during the night.

Hezbollah has not commented on the incident, and the Israeli military initially did not report any casualties in Lebanon. Despite a fragile ceasefire, both Israel and Hezbollah frequently accuse each other of violating the agreement. Israeli forces remain stationed in southern Lebanon and conduct near-daily strikes, which continue to cause civilian casualties.

The existing framework agreement reportedly includes the withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Lebanon and the disarmament of Hezbollah by the Lebanese army. However, neither of these provisions has been implemented.
