The IDF says the wave of strikes it carried out a short while ago targeted Hezbollah infrastructure in several areas across Lebanon, including a weapons-production site, arms depots and rocket launchers.
According to the military, the facilities were being used to “advance terror attacks against the State of Israel and IDF soldiers.” The IDF says the activity at the targeted sites constituted a violation of the ceasefire understandings between Israel and Lebanon.
