The Israeli Air Force struck Hezbollah command centers in Beirut, along with gas stations owned by the terror group elsewhere in Lebanon, the military says.
The Hezbollah headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburbs were targeted today following fresh evacuation warnings for the area. The IDF says Hezbollah had used them to plan attacks on troops and Israeli civilians.
The military says that in recent days it struck two more Al-Amana gas stations, a fuel distribution company that is owned by Hezbollah and has been under US sanctions since February 2020.
Since the fighting began in the war with Iran, the IDF says it has struck more than 15 Al-Amana gas stations.
“The gas stations were used to refuel trucks transporting weapons and terrorists, and generated profits for the Hezbollah terror organization amounting to millions of dollars to fund its activities,” the army says.
