The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have announced the commencement of a new phase of large-scale airstrikes against Hezbollah targets within Lebanese territory.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports, citing local media and military sources, that the operation specifically targets the group's infrastructure and strategic positions.
The Israeli side stated that these measures were taken to mitigate security risks in the region. The strikes primarily cover the southern regions of Lebanon, and the Israeli military has warned that operations will continue. Official information regarding the scale of casualties or destruction has not yet been released.
Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah have reached a peak in recent months, with regular exchanges of fire observed in border areas. This escalation follows a period of heightened regional instability, as both sides reinforce their positions along the Blue Line. International observers have expressed concern over the potential for a broader conflict, noting that southern Lebanon has historically been a flashpoint for military confrontations between the two entities.
