Lebanon said an Israeli strike on Sunday near the Syrian border in the country’s east killed four people, as Israel claimed it was targeting operatives from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad militant group. Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) reported an “Israeli enemy raid on a car” killed four people near Masna on the Syrian border. The outlet said civil defence teams were able to extinguish the resultant fire inside the car and retrieve the bodies. Four explosions had been heard in nearby towns. The Israeli army said it “struck Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists in the Majdal Anjar area in Lebanon”.
