TL;DR

Three people were killed Thursday in a strike on a vehicle in the village of Mifdun, southern Lebanon, according to Lebanese media. Separately — and unconnected to the incident — Israeli and Lebanese delegations began talks in Washington.

01 · THE DISPATCH

At least three people were killed in a strike on a vehicle in the southern Lebanese village of Mifdun, Nabatieh district, on Thursday afternoon, according to Lebanese media reports. The target and affiliation of those killed are not yet confirmed. As The Zioneer reported earlier on Thursday, an earlier unofficial claim that a motorcycle was struck has been corrected by Lebanese state media, which said the attack targeted a vehicle. Also Thursday, the latest round of talks between Israel and Lebanon opened in Washington — the two events are separate and not linked. The strike in Mihdun follows a pattern of Israeli strikes on vehicles in southern Lebanon since the escalation began, though no immediate claim of responsibility or attribution has been made. The talks, which coincide with the strike, are focused on borders, security, and the Israeli withdrawal timetable.
