Israeli fighter jets struck several buildings used by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon’s Tayr Harfa and Kafr Kila today, the IDF says.
IDF tanks also shelled sites used by the terror group in Rab al-Thalathine.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah took responsibility for several rocket attacks on Israeli communities and IDF posts along the border, in the upper and western Galilee.
The IDF says that at least one projectile impacted the community of Avivim, causing no injuries.
It also says that troops shelled the launch sites in southern Lebanon with artillery.
Meanwhile, sirens that sounded in Shear Yeshuv were determined to have been false alarms, according to the IDF.
