Footage of IDF strikes in Lebanon
An Israeli military spokesperson stated that the presence of weapons and rocket launchers in these sites poses a threat to Israel and is a blatant violation of the agreements between Israel and Lebanon. “The IDF will continue to act to remove any threat to Israel and will prevent any attempt by Hezbollah to rebuild and entrench itself,” the spokesperson added.

This comes amid ongoing Israeli operations in Lebanon despite the fragile ceasefire along Israel’s northern border. Last week, Israeli air force drones, guided by intelligence, eliminated a Hezbollah member, Mohammed Mahdi Ali Shaheen, in the al-Hermel region of the Bekaa Valley. Shahin was reportedly involved in coordinating weapons deals along the Syria-Lebanon border, continuing operations even after the ceasefire agreement was in effect.
