Israel’s military has claimed that overnight it once again struck at Hezbollah targets inside Lebanon. Israel and anti-Israeli forces have been clashing almost non-stop over the UN-drawn blue line that separates Israel and Lebanon since 7 October.

In its statement, the IDF claimed:

IAF fighter jets struck Hezbollah terror targets in southern Lebanon. Among the targets struck were operational infrastructure in the area or Jabal Blat, as well as a number of Hezbollah military structures in the area of Marwahin.
