The IDF says it carried out a new wave of strikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon today, including a truck ferrying weapons.
Fighter jets also hit a building used by the terror group and other infrastructure in the towns of Khiam, Nabatieh and Kfar Hamam.
Several projectiles were also fired from Lebanon earlier, and the IDF says it shelled the launch sites with artillery.
The IDF also says air defenses intercepted a “suspicious aerial target” that entered Israeli airspace earlier, setting off drone infiltration alarms in a number of towns.
Earlier today, it was reported that an Israeli drone strike targeted two Hezbollah operatives, reportedly including a senior commander, in Nabatieh.
