The Israeli military said it killed a Hezbollah drone commander in an airstrike on an apartment building in Beirut’s southern suburbs.
Hezbollah did not immediately comment on Israel's claim that Mohammed Hussein Surour was dead.
"Following precise intelligence guidance from the Air Force and the Intelligence Division, fighter jets targeted and eliminated (Srour), the commander of Hezbollah's air unit, in Beirut," a military statement said.
The Lebanese Health Ministry said two people were killed and 15 wounded in the strike.
"The Israeli enemy strike on Beirut's southern suburbs killed two people and wounded 15, including a woman in critical condition," a ministry statement said.
The strike came two days after a similar attack killed a senior Hezbollah military commander with the group’s missile unit.
Israeli strikes have killed more than 630 people in Lebanon since Monday, about a quarter of them women and children. Hezbollah has fired hundreds of projectiles towards Israel over the past week, including a surface-to-surface missile toward Tel Aviv that was intercepted Wednesday.
