Israeli Air Force jets struck approximately 10 Hezbollah infrastructure sites in four areas of southern Lebanon — Bint Jbeil, Beit Yahoun, Kunin, and Barashit — in response to a ceasefire violation that wounded Israeli forces. Separately, the IDF's 91st Division identified a Hezbollah weapons-truck near the security zone and directed an air strike that triggered secondary explosions, confirming the arms cache.
The IDF confirmed Friday afternoon that it struck approximately 10 Hezbollah infrastructure sites in four areas of southern Lebanon—Bint Jbeil, Beit Yahoun, Kunin, and Barashit—and separately directed an air strike on a Hezbollah weapons truck near the security zone. The military said the operations were in response to ceasefire violations that wounded Israeli forces, and released footage of both strikes. Secondary explosions confirmed the truck was carrying arms.
The first reports of the strikes emerged at 14:01 Jerusalem, when the IDF announced the initial findings. Within minutes, the military updated its statement to confirm the secondary explosions and release footage. The Zioneer then published a detailed article at 14:25 Jerusalem, noting that the strikes followed an attack that wounded a reserve soldier.
The strikes are part of a broader pattern of Israeli operations against Hezbollah infrastructure in southern Lebanon since the November 2024 ceasefire. As The Zioneer has reported, the IDF has conducted multiple large-scale strikes, including a 150-target operation on June 6, a barrage of 50 rockets on June 20, and strikes on drone infrastructure in Tyre on June 10. Ceasefire violations, including Hezbollah attacks on Israeli forces, have continued sporadically.
The IDF did not provide casualty figures for the strikes, and it remains unclear whether Hezbollah operatives were killed. The specific nature of the ceasefire violation that triggered today's response, beyond the wounding of the reserve soldier, was not detailed.
