The IDF says it struck a Hezbollah operative who was spotted at an observation post in southern Lebanon’s Marwahin.
The operative was identified by a surveillance soldier of the 869th Combat Intelligence Collection Unit, and within a short while an airstrike was carried out against the site, the IDF says.
Earlier, an airstrike was carried out on a building in Odaisseh where Hezbollah members were gathered, the IDF says.
Another site belonging to the terror group in Ayta ash-Shab was struck last night, the IDF adds.
