The Israeli Air Force carried out a strike against a Hezbollah operative who approached IDF forces in the Sluki sector and posed an immediate threat, the military confirmed. The strike occurred Monday evening.
The IDF confirmed Monday evening that its air force struck a Hezbollah operative who had approached Israeli forces in the Sluki sector of southern Lebanon and posed an immediate threat. The military did not name the operative or specify whether he was killed or wounded.
The Sluki area lies east of the Litani River, close to the border, and has been a focal point of Hezbollah ground activity in recent months.
As The Zioneer has reported, Hezbollah operatives have repeatedly probed IDF positions in the sector, including an incident earlier this month in which a Hezbollah operative was inside Israeli territory for two days before attacking an IDF force. Tonight's strike follows a series of exchanges on the northern border, including a Hezbollah drone strike on an Israeli military zone in the Upper Galilee on Sunday and an IDF strike on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon last week.
