Two people have been killed, according to consistent reports from the Israeli military and the Lebanese newspaper L'Orient-Le Jour.
According to the Israeli military, two armed Hezbollah members were killed.
L'Orient-Le Jour reports that a drone attack was directed at a vehicle on a street in a village in the border area, with many pedestrians and other vehicles nearby. Further people are said to have been injured and a grocery store is reported to have been set on fire.
A ceasefire is supposed to be in effect in southern Lebanon, according to an agreement reached at the end of November last year. Both parties have accused each other of violating the agreement's terms and Israel has carried out several deadly attacks on targets on Lebanese territory.
The ceasefire's terms are that Lebanon's regular but relatively weak army is to deploy forces in a buffer zone in the south, where they are to maintain peace together with international UN forces. Hezbollah is to withdraw northwards, north of the Litani River and further away from Israel, while Israel is to withdraw from Lebanon's southern parts.
Deadlines in the agreement have passed and Israel's government has described the situation as "event-driven".
