The IDF says it struck Hezbollah infrastructure sites and eliminated operatives in the Tyre area and elsewhere in southern Lebanon over the past 24 hours. One strike hit a weapons cache; secondary explosions confirmed the presence of stored arms. Footage of the strikes was released.
The IDF announced Wednesday afternoon that over the preceding 24 hours it had struck Hezbollah infrastructure sites and eliminated terrorists in the Tyre area and additional locations in southern Lebanon. Among the strikes was a hit on a Hezbollah weapons cache; secondary explosions were observed, confirming that arms were stored at the site. As The Zioneer reported earlier Wednesday (04:47 UTC), overnight operations in the same area had targeted six Hezbollah infrastructure sites, including a drone-launch facility and ready-to-fire launchers. Wednesday's strikes extend that campaign into daylight hours and add a confirmed cache strike. The IDF has not reported casualty figures or named the operatives eliminated. Footage of the strikes and the secondary explosions was released by the military. The Tyre sector has been a focal point of Israeli operations this week. On Tuesday the IDF carried out a targeted strike on a vehicle in Tyre, killing several operatives. Background operations over recent days have included strikes on rocket launchers, drone infrastructure, and a suspected tunnel — the latter following a crack in Senegal Street reported June 7. The military describes the current activity as part of ongoing efforts to degrade Hezbollah's forward capabilities in southern Lebanon.
