IDF distances itself from reports that strikes took out 50% of Hezbollah’s precision-guided missiles

After Channel 12 news reports that recent IDF strikes in Lebanon have taken out 50% of Hezbollah’s precision-guided missiles and 75% of rockets with a range of up to 40 kilometers, and has harmed the capacity of the terror group to fire hundreds of rockets simultaneously, the military says it was not the source of the data.

The IDF Spokespersons Unit says the numbers presented by Channel 12 did not come from the military. A spokesperson says they could not verify the percentages and the data given by the network.

The IDF said earlier that it targeted some 1,600 Hezbollah sites, destroying short and medium-range rockets, cruise missiles, and drones stored in homes in south Lebanon and the Beqaa Valley.

Military sources said earlier that assessments of 50% of Hezbollah’s rockets destroyed in the recent strikes were exaggerated.
