The IDF on Sunday struck several weapons storage facilities and terrorist infrastructure in southern Lebanon belonging to Hezbollah, the military announced, in response to the launch of two drones by the terror organization towards troops operating within the security zone.
In addition, the IDF struck a Hezbollah command center established inside a building previously used as a hospital.
The military noted that Hezbollah terrorists had recently been seen using the sites.
Earlier in the day, Lebanon’s Health Ministry reported that at least four were killed and 20 people were injured in the IDF’s strikes.
Ahead of the strikes, IDF Arabic Spokesperson Lt. Col. Ella Waweya issued an evacuation order to residents of the southern Lebanese town of Arab Salim on X/Twitter.
