...KABOOM! ...
on a vehicle in southern Leb
 ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else?

Hours later, five rockets were fired from Lebanon toward Israel, setting off sirens in a number of communities.
"The Israeli enemy’s strike targeting a car in Naqura left two dead," the Lebanese health ministry said, without specifying whether they were combatants.
A Lebanese security source told AFP that the car belonged to "a cleaning company" that was under contract with UNIFIL, the UN peacekeeping force that patrols along the border.
The two victims were "an employee of this company and his cousin, both from Naqura," a town along Lebanon’s border with Israel, according to the source. "The cousin, who lives in an African country, arrived in Lebanon two days ago."
There was no immediate comment on the strike from the IDF. The military said earlier, however, that it had struck a number of buildings used by Hezbollah in five different areas of southern Lebanon overnight.
The strikes were carried out in Yaroun, Ayta ash-Shab, Hanine, Tayr Harfa, and Blida, according to the military, which published footage of the strikes.
