STORYLINE:
Lebanon’s army said Thursday that an Israeli drone strike hit a car at an army checkpoint in the southern port city of Sidon, killing three people and wounding seven others including U.N. peacekeepers.
The army said the seven wounded were three Lebanese soldiers and four Malaysian U.N. peacekeepers who happened to be driving through the area at the time of the airstrike.
Earlier in the day, state-run National News Agency said one of the wounded was taken to the hospital while the peacekeepers were treated for minor injuries at the scene of the attack at the northern entrance of Sidon, Lebanon’s third-largest city.
There was no immediate information on the identities of those who died.
A spokesperson for the U.N. peacekeeping force known as UNIFIL did not respond to messages sent by The Associated Press.
A drone strike earlier Thursday hit a car on a main highway just outside Beirut, killing one woman, according to local media.
