The Lebanese Ministry of Health announced that a man was martyred on Tuesday in an Israeli airstrike that targeted him while he was riding his motorcycle in southern Lebanon, marking the latest in a series of strikes carried out by the Israeli occupation despite an ongoing ceasefire between it and Hezbollah.

In a statement, the ministry said: “An Israeli drone strike on a motorcycle in the town of Yater, in the Bint Jbeil district, resulted in the martyrdom of one person.”
Local media reported that pro-Hezbollah pages mourned the death of Hezbollah member Nabil Balaghi, who was targeted by the Israeli strike while riding his motorcycle in the town of Yater, southern Lebanon.
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli side regarding the strike, which came a day after the Israeli occupation army announced it had killed a Hezbollah member in the village of Majdal Zoun, southern Lebanon.
The Israeli occupation continues to launch airstrikes in Lebanon targeting what it claims are Hezbollah-affiliated positions, despite a ceasefire agreement in effect between the two parties.
A ceasefire agreement has been in place since November 27, brokered by the United States and France, following a conflict that lasted for more than a year and escalated into open confrontation as of September 2024.
The agreement stipulated the withdrawal of Hezbollah fighters from the area south of the Litani River (approximately 30 kilometers from the border) and the dismantling of its military infrastructure there, in exchange for the Lebanese army and UNIFIL forces increasing their presence near the border with Israel.
Recently, Lebanese authorities have reiterated their decision to “restrict arms to the state,” amid growing American pressure to disarm Hezbollah, which has suffered heavy losses to its military and leadership structures during the war with the Israeli occupation.
