The IDF says it carried out “widespread” strikes on Hezbollah sites in Kfarkela in southern Lebanon.

According to the IDF, the strikes were carried in two waves on a series of sites belonging to the terror group this morning and afternoon.

The IDF says Kfarkela is a Hezbollah stronghold, where the terror group “uses the infrastructure in the area for terror purposes, exploiting the civilian population and using it as a human shield for its operations.”

According to the IDF, many rocket and missile attacks against Israel have been carried out from the village.

The IDF also hit targets in Bint Jbeil and Marwahin in southern Lebanon, footage released by the army shows.
