Israel says striking 'Hezbollah sites' in south and Bekaa
The Israeli military on Monday said it had begun hitting Hezbollah positions in the Bekaa region, amid a ceasefire that began earlier this month.
"The IDF has begun to strike Hezbollah infrastructure sites in the Bekaa valley and in additional areas across southern Lebanon," it said in a brief statement on social media.
The Israeli army carried out Monday strikes on Majdal Selem, al-Mansouri, Tebnine, Kafra, Touline, Habboush, al-Sawwaneh, Yater, Froun, al-Jmayjmeh, Sheaitiyeh and al-Qlayleh in south Lebanon, killing at least one person.
Israeli artillery also shelled Kfarshouba, al-Mansouri, Yohmor-Shqif, Yater, Tayr Harfa, Majdalzoun, Zebqine, Henniyyeh, and Bouyout al-Seyyed, while troops in occupied border towns detonated houses, including in Taybeh, Yaroun and Bent Jbeil.
In the Bekaa, the Israeli army struck Janta and Shaara.
Hezbollah for its part targeted troops on the outskirts of Kfarkela and later targeted a Merkava tank in al-Qantara with an attack drone.
