The IDF says that it carried out a series of strikes in southern Lebanon yesterday against Hezbollah sites, killing one terrorrist.

The man was killed in a strike military infrastructure in the Jabal Blat area. In addition sites were hit in Bint Jbeil.

The army also shelled several sites in southern Lebanon.

Overnight, in response to rockets that were launched from Syria toward the Golan Heights, artillery shelled the source of the fire. The rockets did not cross into Israeli terrirotory.

In addition, warplanes hit a Syrian army munitions warehouse in the Mahajjah area.

Since October 8, Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis, with the group saying it is doing so to support Gaza amid the war there.

So far, the skirmishes on the border have resulted in six civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of ten IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.

Hezbollah has named 206 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. In Lebanon, another 32 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and at least 30 civilians, three of whom were journalists, have been killed.
