Beirut, Mar 15 (AP) An Israeli drone strike hit a car in south Lebanon on Saturday, killing one person who the Israeli military said was a member of Hezbollah.
State-run National News Agency did not give further details about the strike in the village of Bourj el-Mlouk.

The airstrike was the latest in a wave of such attacks since a US-brokered ceasefire went into effect in late November ending the 14-month Israel-Hezbollah war.
The Israeli military said the Hezbollah member who was killed was active in the border village of Kfar Kila.
The strike came a day after Lebanon's military court sentenced two people to prison terms for giving digital information to Israel.
Four judicial officials told The Associated Press Saturday that one of those sentenced received a 15-year prison term while the other was sentenced to 10 years in jail.
A third was set free for lack of evidence against him, the officials said on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to share information with the media.
The officials said the two scanned the cellular telephones network in wide areas of Beirut and its southern suburbs that is home to Hezbollah's headquarters using sophisticated equipment.
The officials said the two, who were detained last year, also supplied Israel with about 1,500 photographs from Beirut's southern suburbs. (AP)
