"A short while ago, the IAF (air force) conducted a precise and intelligence-based strike on a significant Hezbollah terrorist in the 4400 Unit in the area of Qasr in Lebanon," the military said in a statement.
It later identified the target as Mahran Ali Nasser al-Din, saying he was killed in the raid.
"Mahran Ali Nasser Al-Din played a significant role in Hezbollah's weapons smuggling operations, and he was directly involved in coordinating with smugglers operating along the Syria-Lebanon border," the military added.
Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA) reported that "an enemy drone targeted a vehicle on the Hermel-Qasr road, leaving one dead and one wounded" in the northeast of the country.
The attack came a day after Israel said it had "struck Hezbollah terrorists" inside a "production and storage facility for strategic weapons".
NNA said the Tuesday strike had killed at least two people and wounded two others.
Israeli warplanes have struck tarets inside Lebanon on numerous occasions since the start of the ceasefire deal in late November 2024, killing and ounding dozens of Lebanese.
