BEIRUT, Lebanon, Oct 2, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Lebanon said two people were killed in an Israeli strike on the country's south on Thursday, the latest deadly attack despite a November ceasefire between Israel and militant group Hezbollah.

"The Israeli enemy strike that targeted a vehicle on the Jarmak-Khardali road led to a preliminary toll of two dead and another wounded," Lebanon's health ministry said in a statement.

The area is located around 10 kilometres (six miles) from the Israeli border.

Israel has kept up near daily strikes on Lebanon, usually saying it is targeting Hezbollah operatives or sites, despite the truce that sought to end more than a year of hostilities including two months of open war with the Iran-backed group.

It has also kept troops in five areas of south Lebanon that it deems strategic.

On Wednesday, the health ministry said one person was killed and five others wounded in an Israeli strike on the south.

The United Nations said it had verified the deaths of 103 civilians in Lebanon since the ceasefire, demanding a halt to the suffering.

Under intense US pressure and fears of expanded Israeli military action, the Lebanese government is seeking to disarm Hezbollah and the army has drawn up a plan to do so beginning in the country's south.

Hezbollah is the only major armed group allowed to keep its weapons following Lebanon's civil war, doing so in the name of resistance against Israel, and has warned it will not surrender its arms.
