TL;DR

The IDF is continuing to strike in the Nabatieh area of southern Lebanon, according to the military. Footage from the village of Haboush was circulated. The current operation follows a series of earlier strikes in the broader Nabatieh district.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The IDF has continued its strikes in southern Lebanon's Nabatieh area on Friday, with footage from the village of Haboush circulating, as first reported by a security analyst at 09:01 Jerusalem. The military has not yet detailed specific targets or the scale of the operation. This is the latest in a sustained campaign: The Zioneer first reported an unverified strike in Nabatieh city early Friday (09:01). Within minutes, the IDF confirmed the strike, and by 09:01 a wave of intense airstrikes across the broader Nabatieh district was reported by Israeli security media, eventually expanding to at least four surrounding towns. Additional footage emerged later that morning (09:01). Over the preceding week, the Nabatieh district was hit repeatedly — The Zioneer reported IDF artillery fire on a house in Nabatieh on Sat Jun 13 (12:51), and earlier, on Fri Jun 12 (20:29), the IDF struck Nabatieh and its surroundings. The thread has evolved from single unconfirmed reports to official IDF confirmation and multiple corroborating sources. The Nabatieh district has been a recurring target as The Zioneer previously reported, with the IDF sustaining its campaign against Hezbollah infrastructure in southern Lebanon; ground advances and heavy shelling were reported in the area on Sat Jun 13 (02:47), and additional strikes were noted in the Sidon area on Jun 5. What remains unclear is whether Friday's strikes represent a new phase or a continuation of the existing operation; the IDF has not provided an operational update.
