Beirut: Five people were injured Wednesday following an Israeli drone attack on the southern Lebanon.

The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported that the Israeli occupation army launched a drone attack on citizens in Majdal Selm town which injured five people.

The 60-day deadline for the withdrawal of Israeli occupation military forces from villages and towns along the southern border of Lebanon expired on Sunday, as part of the ceasefire deal reached on Nov. 27, 2024.

However, the White House recently announced an extension of this deal until Feb. 18, 2025.
