IDF says strike near Tyre hit Hezbollah command rooms where operatives were gathered

Earlier this evening, the IDF says it struck several Hezbollah command rooms where operatives were gathered, near the Lebanese coastal city of Tyre.

The Hezbollah sites were located “in the heart of a civilian population,” the military says.

The IDF in a statement says that “Hezbollah systematically takes control of civilian areas and infrastructures throughout the country and embeds commanders and operatives in civilian areas in order to plan and carry out terror attacks, putting Lebanese civilians in harms way.”

Separately, the IDF says dozens of Hezbollah operatives were killed during fighting in southern Lebanon today, and rocket launchers used in an attack on the Acre area were hit in airstrikes.

Several weapon depots and other buildings used by Hezbollah were also struck in southern Lebanon today, the military adds.
