Israeli Enemy Strikes Vehicle in Mount Lebanon, Expands Ceasefire Violations in the South

In a continued breach of Lebanon’s sovereignty and the ceasefire agreement in the south, Israeli occupation forces carried out a series of attacks and incursions across several regions on Tuesday, escalating tensions along the border and placing civilian lives at risk.

Al-Manar correspondent reported that an Israeli drone struck a minivan-type vehicle on the Adaisseh–Markaba road in southern Lebanon. The Ministry of Public Health later confirmed that the strike resulted in the martyrdom of one individual.

Earlier in the evening, reports also confirmed the martyrdom of one person in an airstrike that targeted a vehicle in the town of Siblin, in the Iqlim Al-Kharroub region in Mount Lebanon.

The Lebanese Ministry of Health confirmed one person martyred and five others injured in an Israeli enemy airstrike targeting a vehicle in Siblin.

An Israeli drone targeted a vehicle in the town of Siblin, in the Iqlim Al-Kharroub region in Mount Lebanon (Dec. 16, 2025).

Later on Tuesday, Al-Manar correspondent reported that Israeli occupation forces fired a flare towards the Al-Mahafir area on the outskirts of the town of Aitaroun.

Additionally, the Israeli artillery targeted the outskirts of the town of Marwahin.

In a separate and serious escalation, an Israeli occupation force infiltrated the town of Al-Dhahira, advancing approximately 750 meters north of the Blue Line. The force transported ammunition boxes rigged with explosives and hand grenades, placing them near a residential home in an apparent attempt to harm civilians who regularly return to their town despite repeated exposure to gunfire and stun grenades by the occupation. The infiltrating unit also planted Israeli flags at the site.

Following the discovery of the booby-trapped devices, the Lebanese Army swiftly imposed a security cordon around the area and safely detonated the explosives.

Meanwhile, Israeli artillery shelled the outskirts of the town of Marwahin, while enemy forces fired an illumination flare toward the Al-Mahafir area on the outskirts of Aitaroun, continuing a pattern of military pressure on southern border communities.
