Lebanese channels report that the IDF is dropping incendiary bombs over the Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon, the site of last night's Hezbollah explosive drone strike on an IDF engineering vehicle. The IDF has not officially commented on the reports.
The IDF is dropping incendiary bombs over the strategic Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon, according to reports from Lebanese channels cited by the Abu Ali Express outlet. The ridge was the scene of an overnight incident in which Hezbollah used an explosive drone against an IDF engineering vehicle, an attack Israel attributed to the terror group, viewing it as a violation of the ceasefire. As The Zioneer reported earlier Wednesday, Israel was preparing a response to the drone strike. The current incendiary bombing appears to be part of that response, but the IDF has not officially confirmed or commented on the reports. The Ali al-Taher ridge has been a focal point of recent IDF operations, including the discovery of Hezbollah's underground headquarters. No details on casualties or the extent of the incendiary bombing have been reported.
