One person was killed Sunday in an Israeli drone strike on a motorcycle in the southern town of Arnoun, Al-Jadeed TV said.

Earlier in the day an Israeli drone bombed a car in the Bint Jbeil district town of Beit Leef, wounding one person, the Health Ministry said.

The attacks come a day after a similar strike in Deir al-Zahrani killed a man described by the Israeli army as a Hezbollah rocket array commander.

Israel has continued to bomb Lebanon despite the November 27 truce that sought to halt more than a year of hostilities with Hezbollah, including two months of open war.

Under the terms of the ceasefire, Hezbollah fighters were to pull back north of the Litani River, some 30 kilometers (20 miles) from the border, and dismantle military infrastructure to its south.

Israel was to withdraw all forces from Lebanon but it has kept troops in five areas it deems "strategic".

The Lebanese Army has deployed in the South and has been dismantling Hezbollah infrastructure.
