Hezbollah fired an anti-tank guided missile at Israeli troops stationed in southern Lebanon this morning, the military says.

According to the IDF, the missile struck near the forces, but no injuries were caused.

The IDF says the attack is a “blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.”

Separately, the IDF announces that a Hezbollah operative who was operating at a rocket launching site in southern Lebanon was killed in an airstrike yesterday.

The military says the operative was targeted at the rocket launching site in Sejoud to “prevent a direct threat to the communities of northern Israel.”

“The terrorist was eliminated in an aerial strike in order to prevent the continuation of his activity at the launch site,” the IDF says.
