The IDF confirms carrying out airstrikes in southern Lebanon a short while ago, saying it targeted Hezbollah facilities.
The sites hit by fighter jets were used by Hezbollah to store weapons and launchers and had “posed a direct threat to the Israeli home front,” the military says.
According to the IDF, Hezbollah activity at the sites “constitutes a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.”
