The IDF says it struck and destroyed a Hezbollah rocket launcher embedded within a civilian building in southern Lebanon today.

Troops of the Givati Brigade identified the launcher during operations in the Israeli-held security zone. The military says it was aimed at Israel and IDF troops stationed in southern Lebanon.

The IDF says it then struck the launcher “to remove the threat.”

Meanwhile, Hezbollah launched several more explosive-laden FPV drones at Israeli troops in southern Lebanon, in two separate incidents today.

The IDF says the drones exploded near the forces, but did not cause any injuries.
