The Israeli military confirmed the attack, saying it targeted a "prominent" Hezbollah air unit leader who had repeatedly violated agreements between Israel and Lebanon, including by overseeing drone launches toward Israeli territory.

Earlier on Saturday, an Israeli drone strike targeted the Al-Aqaba neighborhood on the outskirts of Ainata in the Bint Jbeil district, though no injuries were reported in that incident.

The war, which escalated into an open confrontation in September 2024, saw Israel intensify airstrikes and launch ground incursions into southern Lebanon, resulting in over 4,000 Lebanese casualties and the displacement of more than a million people. Since then, Israel is alleged to have breached the ceasefire more than 52 times, causing at least 15 fatalities, including a Lebanese Army officer.

In recent weeks, both sides have accused each other of ceasefire violations. Israel has vowed to prevent Hezbollah from rebuilding its capabilities or transferring weapons. At the same time, an Israeli security official stated on Thursday that Israel is prepared to withdraw from Lebanese territory within the stipulated timeline. That same day, overnight airstrikes targeted Hezbollah military sites, which the Israeli army claimed housed weapons and launchers posing a direct threat to its civilians.

After discussions with American General Jasper Jeffers, co-chair of the ceasefire monitoring mechanism, and US Ambassador to Lebanon Lisa Johnson, Berri said, "The Americans informed me that the Israeli occupation will withdraw from the villages it still occupies by February 18, but it will remain in five locations. On behalf of the President and the Prime Minister, I informed them of our absolute rejection of this."
