The Israeli army announced on Thursday that one of its soldiers was killed during an "operational activity" in southern Lebanon the day before.

The military stated that a 32-year-old sergeant "fell during an operational activity." A spokesperson told Agence France-Presse that the soldier died as a result of his vehicle overturning.

The Lebanese front has been calm since Saturday evening following the signing of the US-Iran memorandum of understanding. However, Israel reported on Tuesday and Wednesday that it targeted individuals suspected of belonging to Hezbollah, which condemned the violation of the ceasefire as "blatant." Lebanese authorities reported four fatalities from these incidents.
