The IDF is carrying out a continuing wave of airstrikes against villages in southern Lebanon, according to security-focused reports. Specific targets, munitions, and casualty figures have not been reported in the latest messages. The strikes follow an earlier wave that hit Tebnit and al-Duwayr just minutes earlier.
The IDF continued its wave of airstrikes across multiple villages in southern Lebanon Friday morning, according to a security-focused source. This ongoing wave follows a barrage at 10:14 Jerusalem that struck Tebnit and al-Duwayr — a renewal of attacks on those locations, as The Zioneer reported at the time. No targets, munitions, or casualty figures have been provided for either this wave or the earlier one.
The strikes are part of a sustained campaign that began before dawn Friday. At 08:07 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported heavy fighting and strikes deep inside Lebanon, attributed to a military source. Minutes later, the same desk reported that the Air Force was hitting Tebnit, al-Duwayr, and Tulin (Fri 08:07 Jerusalem). The 10:14 strike on Tebnit and al-Duwayr — cited by a Lebanese-mediated report — was therefore the third published mention of those villages in the same morning. Earlier that day, also at 08:07 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that residents were again fleeing southern villages in response to the ongoing strikes, and footage of a strike in the village of Haboush was released.
The wider campaign has been described by the IDF as a 'fire belt' pattern of widespread attacks, as The Zioneer reported on Tue Jun 9, 19:20 Jerusalem. Strikes have persisted despite reports of a pending agreement; on Mon Jun 15, 08:38 Jerusalem, the desk noted the military pushing back against such reports. A series of earlier context items also document the campaign's continuity, including a wave at Sun Jun 14, 23:18 Jerusalem and another at Wed Jun 17, 15:19 Jerusalem.
What remains unconfirmed is whether the current wave involves new target sets or represents a continuing operational tempo. No casualty figures or damage assessments have been released by any source for any of Friday's strikes.
