Lebanese authorities have not yet commented on either incident.
Earlier, President Joseph Aoun ordered the Lebanese army to respond to any Israeli incursions. Despite the November 27 ceasefire, Israeli forces remain positioned at five sites inside Lebanese territory and continue to shell southern and eastern Lebanon as well as Beirut’s southern suburbs.
According to government data, Israeli attacks since the ceasefire have killed about 300 people and injured more than 650. Earlier this week, an airstrike on a sawmill near Tyre killed two brothers.
