Israeli fighter jets struck a building in southern Lebanon’s Rab al-Thalathine where two operatives were spotted after launching rockets at Israel earlier today, the IDF says.
According to the IDF, several rockets were launched from Rab al-Thalathine at the Misgav Am area in northern Israel. Most of the rockets were shot down by air defenses, it says.
A short while after the rocket attack, two Hezbollah operatives were spotted entering a building in the town. A fighter jet then struck the site.
