TL;DR

Hezbollah launched a rocket barrage at IDF forces operating in the village of Tabnit in southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese Al-Mayadeen channel, which is affiliated with the Resistance Axis. Overnight, Lebanese sources also reported IDF artillery fire toward Nabatieh al-Fawqa and Jabal Rafi'. The exchanges come despite a declared ceasefire.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Hezbollah fired another rocket barrage at IDF troops in the village of Tabnit, southern Lebanon, on Tuesday morning, according to the Lebanese Al-Mayadeen channel. The IDF responded by shelling the nearby ridges and Nabatieh al-Fawqa. The exchange follows a pattern of persistent ceasefire violations: as The Zioneer reported on Monday at 18:55 Jerusalem, Hezbollah had already launched a rocket salvo at IDF forces in Tebnit and also claimed its first attack since the Iran-US ceasefire, targeting IDF armor near Tabnit with missiles and drones. Overnight, Lebanese sources reported IDF artillery fire toward Nabatieh al-Fawqa and Jabal Rafi'.

The Tabnit area has been a focal point for weeks. On June 13, The Zioneer reported a 'fire belt' of strikes in Nabatieh and surrounding towns, and on June 14, fresh heavy artillery was reported on the Ali al-Taher ridge. By June 15, separate Lebanese reports described Hezbollah firing anti-tank missiles at an IDF force advancing near the ridge. The IDF has not publicly commented on the current exchanges, and casualty figures for either side have not yet been reported.
