The Lebanese army said that it had fired on Israeli troops after a second incident on Thursday in which a Lebanese soldier was killed in an Israeli strike.

Initially, the Lebanese military reported that an Israeli drone had struck an army unit working to enable the passage via the Marjeyoun-Hasbaya road of civilians to the town of Koukba.

One soldier was reportedly wounded in the alleged strike.

Later, the Lebanese army said one soldier was killed, and another was wounded in an Israeli strike while carrying out an evacuation and rescue mission with the Lebanese Red Cross in the southern town of Taybeh.

Another soldier reportedly killed

Then, in another statement, the Lebanese army said that a soldier was killed in an Israeli strike on a military post in southern Lebanon, adding that soldiers fired back at the source of the fire.

It is the first time the army has fired back at Israeli forces since the conflict began a year ago, a Lebanese security source told Reuters.
