The strike, which occurred in Qaaqaaiyet El Jisr in the Nabatieh area, had earlier left five soldiers injured when drones hit a vehicle carrying four troops and a motorcycle ridden by a fifth.

One of the wounded soldiers later succumbed to his injuries, the army said, while the others remain hospitalized.
