Two Lebanese officers, one soldier killed in Israeli strike in Lebanon

Two Lebanese officers and one soldier ​were killed on Saturday ‌in an Israeli strike on a military vehicle on the Khardali-Nabatieh ​road in south Lebanon, ​the Lebanese army said.

Later, the Israeli ⁠military said it targeted ​the vehicle after identifying what ​it described as a threat to its forces and receiving indications that ​Hezbollah was preparing to fire ​on Israeli troops from the area.

It ‌said ⁠an initial inquiry showed that two Lebanese army officers and a soldier were inside the ​vehicle and ​that ⁠the incident was under review.

The Lebanese army has ​largely stayed out of ​hostilities ⁠between Hezbollah and Israel and has not taken part in ⁠the ​fighting during the ​current conflict.
