“Including command centers from which terrorists operated, military structures, and additional terrorist infrastructure,” the IDF said, describing the scope of the strikes.

The military added that Hezbollah fighters had fired rockets toward Israeli forces operating in southern Lebanon during the same period. The rockets reportedly landed in open areas, and no warning sirens were activated in accordance with standard protocol.

“The command centers and military structures that were struck were used by Hezbollah terrorists to advance terror attacks against IDF soldiers and the State of Israel.”

The IDF also said it would continue operations against perceived threats, acting under directives from Israel’s political leadership.
