A fragile ceasefire between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah militia held on Wednesday despite isolated violations in southern Lebanon, as Lebanese and Israeli officials continued talks aimed at shoring up the truce.
The Israeli military said it had killed two Hezbollah fighters in southern Lebanon, describing them as a threat to its forces.
Lebanon's state-run National News Agency reported that Israeli troops also opened fire on two civilian vehicles near the city of Nabatieh, though no injuries were reported.
Israeli drones were again seen over the coastal city of Tyre, fuelling concerns among returning residents that hostilities could resume.
Meanwhile, Israeli and Lebanese officials are continuing talks in Washington aimed at reinforcing the ceasefire and advancing security arrangements in southern Lebanon.
Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam reiterated his opposition to any continued Israeli military presence on Lebanese territory, while President Joseph Aoun stressed that the negotiations would proceed independently of broader US-Iran talks.
The Lebanese government is seeking a lasting agreement that would stabilize the south, pave the way for an Israeli withdrawal and strengthen state authority in the border region.
