Israel continues to defend itself from Hezbollah terrorist attacks

JERUSALEM — Israel’s military struck targets throughout southern Lebanon overnight after Hezbollah terrorists attacked an Israeli military unit and killed 4 Israeli soldiers, including a lieutenant colonel. An explosive drone attack wounded another five.

Israel then launched multiple strikes against “Hezbollah infrastructure sites” in Nabatiyeh and other areas, according to a military statement, which accused the militant group of “blatant ceasefire violations.”

Later, the military said it also struck targets in the Beqaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, with Lebanese media saying the village of Douris was hit.

“Israel will not tolerate attacks on our soldiers or on our territory, and it will exact a very heavy price from Hezbollah for these attacks,” Netanyahu said in a statement Friday.
