The IDF said Friday night it carried out airstrikes in southern Lebanon, saying it targeted Hezbollah military sites.

The sites had been used to store weapons and rocket launchers, the military said, adding that the strikes were carried out due to the sites posing a threat to Israel.

“The weapons and the rocket launchers in the military sites posed a threat to the State of Israel and constituted a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon,” the IDF said.
