The IDF releases footage of its airstrikes against Hezbollah sites deep in Lebanon, near the northeastern city of Baalbek, earlier this week.
The IDF said at the time that it hit a site belonging to Hezbollah’s air defense unit, in response to the Iran-backed Lebanese terror group shooting down a military drone over southern Lebanon.
The strikes near Baalbek, some 100 kilometers from the border, marked the deepest publicly confirmed Israeli strikes in Lebanon in years.
