The Israeli military is seeking to weaken the Hezbollah terror group as much as possible, even following the assassination of its leader Hassan Nasrallah, and other top commanders.
The IDF is saying that there is more work to do against Hezbollah, and there are more stages and capabilities that can be used against it.
Strikes targeting Hezbollah’s top officials, the group’s capabilities, and weapon shipments, will continue, military sources say.
The IDF says that more than 3,500 munitions have been dropped by Israeli Air Force fighter jets on Hezbollah sites in the past week, taking out many of their rocket, missile, and drone capabilities, along with intelligence sites.
The military has also imposed a “military blockade” on Lebanon, preventing arms from being smuggled into the country from Iran, both through the ground crossings and via the international airport in Beirut. Strikes have been carried out against some of the border crossings between Lebanon and Syria, and some flights from Iran have not been allowed to land in Beirut.
