Tel Aviv [Israel], May 4 (ANI): The Israeli Air Force on Monday said it struck Hezbollah infrastructure after an anti-tank missile was launched toward Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.
The military said forces of the 91st Division also targeted the launch position from which the missile was fired. No casualties were reported in the incident.
In a post on X, the Israeli Air Force said, “During the night, the Air Force struck infrastructure of the terrorist organization Hezbollah, from which the organization’s terrorists operated, after an anti-tank missile was launched toward our forces in southern Lebanon, with no casualties. Within a short time, forces of the 91st Division attacked the launch position from which the missile was fired.”
According to Al Jazeera, Israeli strikes targeted Debaal, Qana, Srifa, Qalaouiyah, Zawtar al-Sharqiya, Toulin, Shehour, and Braashit.
Despite an April 16 ceasefire, Israel and Hezbollah have continued to exchange fire in southern Lebanon, where Israeli troops remain deployed.
At least two people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on the southern Lebanese town of Shehour, according to Al Jazeera.
The Israeli military said it carried out a series of strikes against targets in southern Lebanon on Saturday.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its forces struck multiple sites linked to Hezbollah over the past day, targeting what it described as militant infrastructure used to plan and support attacks.
“Over the past day, the IDF struck numerous terrorist infrastructure sites and eliminated terrorists operating adjacent to IDF soldiers in southern Lebanon,” the military said.
It added that around 70 military structures and approximately 50 Hezbollah-linked infrastructure sites were dismantled across several areas. According to the IDF, the targets included command centers, weapons storage facilities, military buildings, and other sites allegedly used to support attacks against Israeli forces.
“The IDF will continue to operate against threats directed at Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers, in accordance with directives from the political echelon,” the statement said. (ANI)
