The IDF says it struck more than 70 Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure sites across southern Lebanon over the past 24 hours, including launchers and structures used to prepare attacks against Israeli forces and civilians. Terrorists spotted in active combat zones in southern Lebanon were also eliminated, according to the military.
The IDF reported on Wednesday afternoon that over the preceding 24 hours it struck more than 70 Hezbollah infrastructure sites in southern Lebanon, focusing on launchers and operational structures used by the terrorist organization to plan attacks on Israeli soldiers and civilians. The military added that operatives identified in areas where Israeli ground forces are deployed were eliminated simultaneously.
The announcement continues a sustained campaign of daytime and overnight strikes across southern Lebanon that The Zioneer has tracked over the past week. On June 10 the IDF reported striking six Hezbollah sites in Tyre including drone-launch infrastructure, and separately said it had eliminated over 20 terrorists in the preceding two weeks. The current 24-hour total of more than 70 targets represents a significant operational tempo, though the IDF has struck as many as 150 sites over a weekend period in early June.
No casualty figures or details about specific towns struck were released in this report. The military did not specify whether the strikes were conducted by air or ground artillery. The operations remain concentrated in the southern Lebanon zone where IDF ground forces have been active for months, with the stated objective of removing threats to northern Israeli communities.
