The IDF confirms carrying out airstrikes in Lebanon’s eastern Beqaa Valley a short while ago, saying it targeted a Hezbollah training camp where operatives were gathered and a precision missile manufacturing site, among other targets.
According to the military, the training camp was used by Hezbollah to plan attacks against Israel.
The missile manufacturing site in the Beqaa Valley has previously been struck by the IDF numerous times.
The IDF says it also struck a Hezbollah military site in northern Lebanon.
In total, five fighter jets hit 16 Hezbollah targets during the strikes in the Beqaa Valley and in the north of the country, according to the military.
“The storage of weapons, the presence of terror infrastructure, and the conduct of military training against the State of Israel by Hezbollah terrorists constitute a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon and a threat to the State of Israel,” the military adds.
