The IDF Spokesperson confirmed Wednesday afternoon that the military has initiated targeted strikes in southern Lebanon, citing a 'blatant violation' of the ceasefire by the Hezbollah terror organization. The Israeli military said the operation is focused on the southern Lebanon area.
The IDF Spokesperson announced at 16:05 Jerusalem that the military had initiated targeted strikes in southern Lebanon, citing a 'blatant violation' of the ceasefire by the Hezbollah terror organization. The statement followed earlier warnings: at 15:43, the IDF Arabic-language spokesperson issued an evacuation order for the southern Lebanese village of Al-Mansouri, and at 15:51 military sources accused Hezbollah of violating the truce. Reports from the Shia village of Tebnine indicated at least two wounded in the strikes. The IDF warned residents of northern Israel to expect explosions over the next hour. The operation, described as a wave of precise strikes, continues a pattern of Israeli responses to Hezbollah's repeated ceasefire breaches. As The Zioneer reported earlier (Wed 16:14), the IDF has maintained that any violation of the ceasefire would draw a forceful response.
