The IDF confirms bombing two bridges on the Litani River today, saying they were used by Hezbollah to move operatives and weapons into southern Lebanon.
“The Hezbollah terrorist organization uses these crossings to transfer thousands of weapons, rockets and rocket launchers, which it uses to carry out terror attacks from the area south of the Litani [River] against IDF troops and Israeli civilians,” the military says.
The IDF says it struck the bridges to “prevent harm to Israeli civilians as well as to Lebanese civilians.”
