The IDF says it carried out a drone strike in southern Lebanon earlier today, after identifying Hezbollah operatives loading a vehicle up with weapons.
The strike targeted “the weapons that were on the vehicles, to remove the threat,” the military says.
According to the Lebanese health ministry, two people were killed in the strike, in the town of Tayr Debba, close to Tyre.
The IDF says it “continues to be committed to ceasefire understandings between Israel and Lebanon” and will “remove any threat to Israel and its citizens,” as it remains deployed to some areas of southern Lebanon.
