An Israeli drone strike near the Syria border has wounded six people in Lebanon's Hermel district, the Lebanese health ministry said.
- Lebanese health authorities reported six wounded — five Syrian nationals, two of them women, and one Lebanese — in the strike near Houch al-Sayed Ali in Hermel.
- Lebanon's National News Agency said the drone targeted a car in an area largely spared attacks since the June Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.
- Israel's military said it struck a "Syrian terrorist" who "operated under the direction of the Iranian regime" and planned attacks against Israeli forces in southern Syria.
- Israel's military said it will continue removing "immediate threats" and reaffirmed its commitment to the agreement with Lebanon.
