The IDF says it carried out airstrikes on a series of Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon a short while ago.

The targets included weapons depots, rocket launchers, and sites used to store construction vehicles that were used by the terror group to restore its infrastructure, according to the military.

“The Hezbollah terror organization continues its attempts to restore terror infrastructure throughout Lebanon, while endangering Lebanese civilians and using them as human shields,” the IDF says, adding that the presence of weapons and Hezbollah’s activity in the area “constitutes a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.”

Since the beginning of a ceasefire in November 2024, the IDF says it has carried out over 500 airstrikes against Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, killing at least 230 operatives and destroying dozens of sites belonging to the terror group, saying they violated the terms of the truce.
