Israel Kills One, Injures Three in Strike on Lebanon Despite US-Iran Deal Taking Effect

Lebanese state media said the strike killed one person and seriously wounded another as violence continued despite the new US-Iran agreement.

  • On Thursday, an Israeli drone strike in southern Lebanon killed one person, hours after President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a memorandum of understanding on Wednesday to end the Middle East war.
  • The agreement, signed Wednesday in France, aims to halt the conflict launched in February by the United States and Israel, mandating the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and dilution of Iranian uranium stocks.
  • Following the blockade's end, at least 10 commercial vessels transited the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, though Esmaeil Baqaei, the spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, warned the deal could be "nullified" without full Israeli withdrawal.
  • Israel continues to maintain a six-mile-deep "security zone" along Lebanon's southern border, with officials telling Reuters the country is "conducting stubborn negotiations" with Washington to keep troops deployed despite the deal.
  • Face-to-Face implementation talks begin Friday in Switzerland, where delegates will attempt to resolve southern Lebanon's status and Tehran's nuclear program amid significant implementation challenges ahead.
