The Israeli military says it has killed around 1,000 Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon since hostilities escalated amid the war with Iran.
They include hundreds of members of the terror group’s elite Radwan Force, according to the IDF.
Meanwhile, in the past day, Hezbollah fired around 130 rockets that crossed the border into Israel, according to the IDF.
Most of the rockets were intercepted or struck open areas, though some hit Israeli cities, lightly injuring several people and causing damage.
Hezbollah fired hundreds more rockets at troops operating in southern Lebanon in the past day.
