The Israeli army announced this morning, Friday, that air force fighter jets attacked a number of Hezbollah targets in the Lebanese-Syrian border area last night.

According to the Israeli military, "IAF fighter jets, based on intelligence directives from the Military Intelligence Division, carried out raids last night on a number of targets belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization in the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, which posed a threat to Israeli territory and IDF forces."

He pointed out that "among the targets that were targeted: a military site that includes underground infrastructure for developing and producing combat equipment, in addition to infrastructure for crossing the Syrian-Lebanese border, which Hezbollah uses to try to smuggle weapons into it."

The army added that "the Hezbollah reconnaissance drone, which was on its way to Israeli airspace yesterday (Thursday) and was shot down by the air force, is considered a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.

The IDF remains committed to the understandings reached regarding the ceasefire in Lebanon, and will not allow the implementation of terrorist plans of this kind. The IDF is deployed in the southern Lebanon area, and will continue to work to remove any threat against the State of Israel and its forces."
