01 · THE DISPATCH

Israeli sources reported that an airstrike overnight targeted a truck from which a Hezbollah cell was loading weapons in southern Lebanon. Lebanese media now say two people were wounded in the strike, with no fatalities reported. The IDF has not confirmed the casualties, and the claim remains unverified.

This follows the IDF's earlier announcement at 14:01 Jerusalem Friday that it had struck a Hezbollah weapons truck and 10 infrastructure sites in southern Lebanon, with secondary explosions confirming the presence of arms. The military said the strikes were in response to Hezbollah's continued violations of the ceasefire agreement, including attacks on Israeli forces.

The Zioneer has reported on a series of Hezbollah attacks and Israeli retaliatory strikes along the border. On June 16, Hezbollah fired an anti-tank missile and mortars at IDF troops in southern Lebanon, causing no casualties. On June 10, Hezbollah claimed to have struck two Israeli vehicles near Majdal Zoun. The IDF has repeatedly targeted Hezbollah weapons convoys and infrastructure in the area.

The extent of the overnight strike, the nature of the weapons, and the condition of the wounded remain unclear; the IDF has not issued an official statement on the reported casualties.
