An Israeli attack targeted the central headquarters of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) in southern Lebanon, killing one peacekeeper and seriously injuring another, UNIFIL confirmed.
The peacekeeping mission stated that an investigation into the incident is ongoing.
Al Jazeera reported the strike on UNIFIL's base, with the mission directly verifying the casualties and the attack's occurrence.
In a separate development, Israeli attacks on Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip killed at least six people, including three police officers and three civilians, one of whom was a child. Four others were wounded in those strikes, according to Reuters.
The incidents occurred amid ongoing regional tensions, though specific details on the timing or further context were not provided in the reports.

Reliability assessment
Single source (RTA) with strong attribution: cites Al Jazeera for UNIFIL attack details, direct UNIFIL confirmation (named entity), and Reuters for Gaza attacks; core events corroborated via named outlets/mission.
The source language mixes facts with framing or advocacy wording. RTA: "Zionist regime of Israel" (pejorative political label implying illegitimacy); "martyred" (advocacy phrasing evoking religious sacrifice instead of neutral "killed").
