An Israeli drone carried out an airstrike targeting a car in southern Lebanon on Sunday morning, according to the Lebanese National News Agency. This is the latest attack of its kind amid escalating tensions on the border between the two sides in recent days.
The agency reported that a guided missile targeted "a car in the town of Aita al-Shaab, and injuries were reported."
The agency had previously reported that the death toll from Israeli raids on Lebanon on Saturday had reached 7 dead and 40 wounded.
The Ministry of Public Health's Public Health Emergency Operations Center announced in a statement Saturday evening that "a series of raids launched by the Israeli enemy on a number of Lebanese regions resulted in the deaths of seven martyrs and the injury of 40 others."
Meanwhile, Lebanese Foreign Minister Youssef Rajai called for pressure to restore calm and end the ongoing Israeli attacks on his country.
According to Lebanon's Al Jadeed TV channel, on Sunday, this came during a phone call made by Minister Rajai to Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, and High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission, Kaya Kallas.
Minister Raji called on them to "intervene and make the necessary contacts to stop the Israeli attacks."
