The IDF’s 98th Division has begun operations in new areas of southern Lebanon, the military says.
The division, with the Paratroopers Brigade and 7th Armored Brigade, is working to locate and destroy Hezbollah infrastructure that threatens the Kiryat Shmona area.
Before the operation, the IDF launched numerous airstrikes on the area, which had been used by Hezbollah for rocket attacks on the Galilee Panhandle and Kiryat Shmona.
Three other divisions, the 91st, 36th and 146th, are operating in other areas of southern Lebanon.
