Airwars Assessment
Shortly before 9:35 AM on Thursday, November 28, 2024, at least two to three civilians reportedly sustained injuries following alleged Israeli drone strikes on a civilian car that took place in the border town of Merkaba, Southern Lebanon.
There are conflicting accounts regarding the number of civilians injured and the nature of the Israeli attack on the border town of Markaba. According to @PalinfoAr on X, which reported the incident at 9:35 AM, and Al Jazeera Jordan on Facebook, three people were reportedly injured after an alleged Israeli drone strike hit a car. However, @Alarabiyaleb on X reports that two people were injured in an Israeli attack, without specifying the nature of this Israeli attack, while @alaraby__Brk on X attributed the cause of the injuries to alleged Israeli shelling.
Further information and the identities of the two to three wounded civilians were not disclosed in any of the sources reporting on the alleged attack. Given the limited and repetitive nature of the information about the civilian harm that occurred, Airwars has graded the civilian harm status of the incident as “weak.”
Where sources identified a belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to Israeli forces.
