Israel’s military has claimed its navy hit a Hezbollah “infrastructure site” near the southern Lebanese city of Naqoura, a day after Israel’s foreign minister warned the Lebanese armed group against entering the Iran-Israel war, AFP reports.

“Overnight, an Israeli Navy vessel struck a Hezbollah ‘Radwan Force’ terrorist infrastructure site in the area of Naqoura in southern Lebanon”, the military said in a statement.

The military alleged the site was used by Hezbollah “to advance terror attacks against Israeli civilians”.

In a separate statement, the military said it had “struck and eliminated” a Hezbollah fighter in south Lebanon the previous day, despite an ongoing ceasefire between both sides.

In a statement carried by the official National News Agency, Lebanon’s health ministry said last night that one person was killed in a “strike carried out by an Israeli enemy drone on a motorcycle” in the same south Lebanon village.
