Israel ​struck southern Lebanon on Saturday, ‌a day after the two countries signed a US-brokered security ​arrangement aimed at easing ​tensions along their border after ⁠months of hostilities.

Lebanon's state news ​agency said an Israeli drone ​struck in Nabatieh al-Fawqa, which lies outside a security zone shown ​on a map published by ​Israel of an expanded zone its troops ‌control ⁠in southern Lebanon.

The Israeli military told Reuters it had carried out the strike, using ​a ​drone as ⁠no Israeli troops were in the immediate ​area.

It said it ​targeted ⁠an individual who posed a threat to its forces, ⁠without ​providing further details ​or evidence.
