The IDF says it has completed a second wave of airstrikes in Lebanon since this morning, targeting Hezbollah sites in the Beqaa Valley and in the south of the country.
According to the military, the strikes targeted buildings where Hezbollah stored weapons, command rooms, and other infrastructure.
It says that secondary blasts can be seen in footage following the strikes, “which indicate that many weapons were stored in the buildings.”
