The IDF says it carried an airstrike against a Hezbollah facility in southern Lebanon, after identifying activity there.

The facility had been used to hold medium-range rockets, according to the IDF.

The military says fighter jets struck the site after the Hezbollah activity was identified, removing the threat.

“The IDF is deployed in southern Lebanon, acting and thwarting any violation of the ceasefire agreement,” the military adds.

This is the first strike by warplanes since the ceasefire went into effect.
