Two people were injured in an Israeli drone strike on a pick-up truck in southern Lebanon, state-run media reported, the latest attack despite a US-brokered framework agreement intended to pave the way for a phased Israeli withdrawal.

The drone struck the vehicle as it was unloading garbage on the outskirts of the towns of Choukine and Kfar Dajjal in the Nabatieh district early on Friday, Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) said. Separate strikes also targeted a car in southern Lebanon and demolition operations shook the border town of Khiam overnight.

Later, NNA reported drones also targeted the towns of Kfar Reman and Nabatieh al-Fawqa. No casualties were reported.

The attacks came after Amnesty International called for war crimes investigations into three earlier Israeli strikes in March that killed 24 civilians, including 12 children. Amnesty said its investigation found grounds to conclude that Israeli forces violated international humanitarian law.

“The international community must act now: States must impose an immediate comprehensive arms embargo on Israel and use universal and extraterritorial jurisdiction to investigate and prosecute those responsible,” said Amnesty’s Kristine Beckerle.

Lebanon’s Ministry of Public Health said on Wednesday that the death toll from Israel’s attacks on the country had risen to 4,321, with 12,204 others injured since March 2.
