A building in southern Lebanon’s Kafr Kila, where the military says a group of Hezbollah operatives were gathered, was struck by a fighter jet earlier today.
The IDF says the Hezbollah operatives were spotted by troops of the 869th Combat Intelligence Collection Unit, who then called in the strike shortly after.
Another building used by Hezbollah was struck in Chihine, the IDF says.
Additionally, the IDF says troops shelled areas near Naqoura with artillery to “remove threats.”
Also earlier today, several anti-tank missiles were fired by Hezbollah at the Western Galilee.
The IDF says there were no injuries in the attack.
Hezbollah took responsibility, claiming to have targeted IDF positions.
