Israel said its warplanes struck villages in southern Lebanon overnight, while a security source and the Hezbollah-owned al-Manar TV channel said airstrikes near the border resumed Thursday afternoon. Lebanese media reports massive Israeli airstrikes near Deir Qanun al-Nahr in the Tire district. Residents of Beirut were able to film planes, probably Israeli, that flew over the country’s capital, Beirut.
The Israel Defense Forces announced that it is carrying out a wave of airstrikes against Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon aimed at destroying the terrorist group’s capabilities.
“The Hezbollah terrorist organization has turned southern Lebanon into a war zone, and for decades armed citizens’ houses with weapons, dug tunnels under them and used them as human shields,” the IDF said.
It added that the IDF is working to create security in the north that will allow residents to return to their homes, as well as achieve all other military objectives.
We will remind
On September 17 and 18, communications devices used by members of the Hezbollah organization exploded across Lebanon. Pagers exploded first, then walkie-talkies. It was stated that other electronic devices were also detonated. Israel blamed Hezbollah for this attack. Israel has not commented on this.
Within hours of Wednesday’s blasts, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised to “return safely to their homes” tens of thousands of displaced people from the north of the country.
