The IDF says it carried out an airstrike on a Hezbollah rocket launcher in southern Lebanon earlier today, minutes after the terror group used it to fire projectiles at the Biranit army base.
According to a statement from the Israel Defense Forces, fighter jets also later struck a Hezbollah “military building” adjacent to the launch site in the town of Ayta ash-Shaab.
The military says fighter jets also struck a “military facility” in Mays al-Jabal where a Hezbollah operative was spotted.
The IDF adds that several more Hezbollah sites, including additional buildings, were targeted in Chebaa today, and an observation post in Yaroun was hit overnight.
