Israeli army says jets struck Hezbollah target in southern Lebanon
The site was used “as a hub for managing the fire and defence array” of Hezbollah in the Beaufort Castle area in southern Lebanon, according to an army statement.
It was part of an underground Hezbollah site that was previously hit by Israeli strikes, an army statement added. Hezbollah has been trying to restore the site, and therefore, the infrastructure in the area was attacked, the military said.
The attack was also reported by the Lebanese media.
In recent days, Israel has stepped up its attacks against what it calls Hezbollah targets across southern Lebanon. Yesterday, two people were killed in Israeli drone attacks, with the army saying its raids hit Hezbollah members.
Israel has kept up regular raids on Lebanon, particularly in the south, despite a November 27 ceasefire meant to end more than a year of hostilities that left Hezbollah weakened.
