The IDF confirms carrying out strikes against Hezbollah in northeastern Lebanon’s Baalbek a short while ago, after the terror group fired a barrage of some 50 rockets at northern Israel.

The strike in Baalbek, the second in the area today, targeted another “military compound used by Hezbollah’s aerial unit,” which included a launchpad for drones and several buildings, according to the IDF.

The IDF says it intercepted some of the 50 rockets fired in the barrage, with the remaining striking open areas.

There were no reports of injuries.

Separately, the IDF says fighter jets struck a Hezbollah weapons depot in Hanine and another site in Beit Yahoun.
