The Israeli military announced on Thursday that it had carried out strikes on six Hezbollah “terrorist infrastructure sites” and a weapons storage facility in southern Lebanon overnight, amid growing concerns of an escalating conflict.
In a statement, the military said that its air force targeted Hezbollah positions in the areas of Chihine, Taybeh, Blida, Mays al-Jabal, Aitaroun, and Kfarkela in southern Lebanon. Additionally, a Hezbollah weapons storage site in Khiam was also hit.
In retaliation, Hezbollah attacked Israeli soldiers stationed at the al-Marj post in northern Israel. Israeli media reported that several individuals were injured in Ya’ara following suicide drone attacks launched from Lebanon.
Several other drones hit Beit Hillel, near Kiryat Shmona, sparking fires but causing no injuries, according to the Israeli army.
