Israel deploys troops in southern Lebanon amid Operation Roaring Lion
Alongside the ongoing Operation “Roaring Lion”, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) troops are operating in southern Lebanon and positioned at multiple points near the border zone as part of reinforced forward defence, the IDF press service reports.
“The IDF is working to create an additional layer of security for residents of northern Israel. The IDF is conducting targeted strikes against Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure in order to remove threats and prevent infiltration attempts into Israeli territory," the Israeli army said on Telegram.
The IDF said that Hezbollah "chose to attack Israel on behalf of the Iranian regime and will bear the consequences of its actions."
"The IDF will not allow harm to Israeli civilians and will continue to act to defend the State of Israel and its citizens,” the statement said.
