Israeli fighter jets struck Hezbollah command centers and other infrastructure in Baalbek and Nabatieh earlier today, in the northeast and south of Lebanon, respectively, the IDF announces.

Before the strikes were carried out, the IDF issued evacuation warnings for the entirety of both cities.

The IDF accuses Hezbollah of “systematically” taking over civilian areas in Lebanon for its activities.

Additional strikes earlier today near Baalbek hit Hezbollah fuel depots.
