<p><strong>Jerusalem</strong>— An Israeli drone struck the Nabatiyeh area in southern Lebanon on Saturday, Lebanon&#8217;s state news agency reported, one day after Israel and Lebanon signed a U.S.-brokered security arrangement aimed at easing tensions along their shared border following months of cross-border hostilities.</p>



<p>Lebanon&#8217;s state-run National News Agency reported the drone strike but did not immediately provide details on casualties, damage or the intended target.</p>



<p>The reported attack came less than 24 hours after the two countries agreed to a U.S.-mediated security framework designed to reduce violence along the frontier, where repeated exchanges of fire between Israeli forces and Hezbollah have raised concerns over a broader regional conflict.</p>



<p>Neither the Israeli military nor Lebanese authorities immediately commented on the reported strike, and no further operational details were available.</p>



<p>The new security arrangement seeks to stabilize the border after months of escalating hostilities that have displaced civilians on both sides and heightened regional security concerns. It remains unclear whether Saturday&#8217;s reported strike will affect implementation of the agreement.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>Beirut-</strong>A leading Hezbollah politician said on Friday the group is confident that Hezbollah expects Lebanon to be included in any agreement between the United States and Iran, as diplomatic efforts intensify over a potential broader regional deal, according to remarks broadcast by the group’s media arm.</p>



<p><br>Hassan Fadlallah, a Hezbollah lawmaker, said in a televised excerpt that the group has “complete confidence” that Iran will insist on Lebanon being part of any US-Iran understanding, reflecting expectations within the organization that negotiations will extend beyond bilateral issues to regional conflicts.</p>



<p><br>The comments come as Hezbollah’s involvement in the wider regional conflict has escalated since March 2, when the group entered the confrontation in support of Tehran, triggering an Israeli military response in southern Lebanon that has resulted in heavy casualties and ongoing strikes, according to Lebanese officials and media reports.</p>



<p><br>Iranian officials have repeatedly called for an end to hostilities in Lebanon to be incorporated into any broader settlement. Mohsen Rezaei, an adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, has previously said Lebanon would be an “inseparable part” of any ceasefire framework, according to semi-official Iranian media reports.</p>



<p><br>A Western source cited in regional reporting said a memorandum between Washington and Tehran aimed at halting fighting could be signed soon, though details remain under negotiation, including provisions linked to Lebanon. The source added that Iran has maintained its position that any agreement must address the conflict there.</p>



<p><br>The United States has been mediating discussions between Lebanese and Israeli counterparts, but Hezbollah is not formally part of those talks and has rejected US-backed proposals calling for the group to cease fire and withdraw forces from southern Lebanon.</p>



<p><br>Tensions in southern Lebanon have continued despite multiple ceasefire announcements, with Lebanese state media reporting further Israeli airstrikes in several towns and villages on Friday.</p>



<p><br>Hezbollah’s political leadership has said it rejects external conditions tied to its military posture, while emphasizing its expectation that regional negotiations will reflect what it describes as Lebanon’s central role in any final agreement.</p>
