BEIRUT (AA) - A Lebanese man was killed and a soldier injured in two Israeli attacks in Lebanon on Monday despite a cease-fire deal between the two countries, local media said.

An Israeli drone fired two missiles targeting a motorcycle in the Jdaidet Marjeyoun area in southern Lebanon, leaving one person dead, the state news agency NNA reported.

A soldier was also injured when another drone strike targeted a Lebanese bulldozer while carrying out some work inside the Abbara military site in the Hosh Sayyed Ali-Hermel area in eastern Lebanon, NNA said.

The attacks came shortly after the army said that the body of a Lebanese officer who had been unaccounted for since Nov. 26 after an Israeli airstrike was found in Naqoura town in southern Lebanon.

On Nov. 27, a cease-fire agreement between Lebanon and Israel took effect, ending over 14 months of fighting between the Israeli army and Hezbollah.

Lebanese media reported around 73 Israeli violations of the cease-fire deal since it came into force last week.

Hezbollah has so far remained silent to the Israeli violations of the deal.

More than 3,960 people have been killed and more than 16,500 injured in Israeli attacks in Lebanon and over 1 million displaced since October last year, according to Lebanese health authorities.
