Overnight, Israeli fighter jets also struck Hezbollah targets in the Lebanese capital of Beirut.

According to the IDF, the targets included weapons manufacturing sites, a command room belonging to Hezbollah’s intelligence division, and surveillance equipment.

The Hezbollah assets were all located in civilian buildings in Beirut’s southern suburb, according to the IDF. Before the strike, the military issued evacuation warnings to civilians.

Separately, the IDF says a cell of Hezbollah operatives who launched a missile at an IDF drone in southern Lebanon yesterday were killed in a drone strike a short while later.

The drone flying over Kfar Fila was not hit in the incident, according to the IDF.
