The IDF says it carried out two waves of strikes against Hezbollah targets in the southern Lebanon village of Markaba earlier today.

The sites hit by fighter jets in Markaba include a military building, observation posts, rocket launch positions and other infrastructure belonging to the terror group, the IDF says.

The IDF says it carried out additional strikes, using tank shelling and aircraft, in other areas of southern Lebanon, hitting a Hezbollah command center and another building used by the terror group.

Hezbollah, meanwhile, names a member killed in an Israeli strike earlier today in the village of Kafra, bringing the terror group’s death toll since the beginning of the war to 164.
