Israeli fighter jets struck a building in southern Lebanon’s Houla where a group of Hezbollah operatives were gathered, the military says.
The IDF says the operatives were spotted by troops of the 869th Combat Intelligence Collection Unit, and a short while later the airstrike was carried out.
Another building used by Hezbollah in Houla was also struck, the IDF adds.
It publishes footage of the strikes.
