Beirut, MINA – The Israeli occupation army said Thursday that one of its soldiers was killed and three others wounded in southern Lebanon as Tel Aviv continues to attack southern Lebanese towns despite a framework deal with Beirut, Anadolu Agency Information reports.
Those wounded were taken to the hospital, the army said in a statement.
Israel has continued attacks on Lebanon since March 2, killing more than 4,380 victims and injuring over 12,410, according to Lebanese authorities.
Beirut and Tel Aviv signed a US-sponsored framework agreement on June 26 in Washington providing for a gradual Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory and the deployment of the Lebanese army in areas vacated by Israeli forces.

However, Israel has continued attacks on southern Lebanon despite the agreement, and remains in control of areas in Lebanese territory, some occupied for decades and others seized during more recent wars and military operations.
The Israeli military has carried out airstrikes, artillery shelling, and ground incursions across southern Lebanon, targeting towns and villages in the Nabatieh, Tyre, and Bint Jbeil districts.
These attacks have killed and injured civilians, destroyed homes and infrastructure, and displaced thousands of people. The targeting of medical personnel and facilities has also been documented, raising concerns about violations of international humanitarian law.[]
