BEIRUT: An Israeli drone strike wounded 14 people in south Lebanon Tuesday despite a ceasefire in force for more than six weeks, the Lebanese health ministry said in an updated toll.

The strike hit the southern town of Nabatiyeh Al Fawqa, the state-run National News Agency reported.

At around 7:30 pm, an enemy Israeli drone" carried out "a strike with a guided missile targeting a small vegetable truck" in Nabatiyeh Al Fawqa, the news agency said.
