The IDF says fighter jets carried out a strike a short while ago against a building belonging to the Amal Movement in southern Lebanon’s Marjaayoun, where operatives were gathered.

Amal names three members killed in the strike. The announcement of the deaths is also made via Hezbollah’s media channels.

Amid the ongoing war, Amal — which is allied with Hezbollah — has carried out numerous attacks against Israel, and planned additional attacks, the IDF says.

Earlier today, the IDF says troops of the Golani Brigade spotted a Lebanese terror operative using a drone to direct missile fire, and called in an airstrike against him.

Fighter jets also hit other sites belonging to Hezbollah in Kafr Kila and Tayr Harfa, as well as buildings used by the terror group in Mays al-Jabal and Blida.
