Lebanon says 4 dead in strike as Israel says targeted Palestinian group

BEIRUT, Lebanon: Lebanese official media said an Israeli strike on Sunday in the country’s east near the Syrian border killed four people, as Israel said it had targeted operatives from Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad.
An Israeli drone “targeted a car on the Lebanese-Syrian border,” the state-run National News Agency said, adding that “four bodies” were inside the vehicle, while the Israeli military in a statement said it “struck Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists in the Majdal Anjar area.”
