Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent
Israeli fighter jets struck buildings used by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon’s Kafr Kila and Ayta ash-Shab a short while ago, the military says.
Additional Hezbollah infrastructure was struck in Aitaroun and Ayta ash-Shab, the IDF adds.
Meanwhile, the IDF says some 10 rockets were fired from Lebanon at the Western Galilee earlier this evening, which all struck open areas, causing no injuries.
Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it came as a response to the killing of three Syrian children in an Israeli strike earlier.
