Israel says over 380 Hezbollah targets struck in southern Lebanon VIDEO

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has said it had struck more than 380 targets belonging to Hezbollah in southern Lebanon over the past 24 hours, in what it described as operations supporting Israeli ground forces operating in the area.

According to the IDF, the targets included rocket launchers, command centres and other infrastructure linked to the Hezbollah armed group.

It added that some of the launchers were used in recent rocket fire towards Israeli territory and were subsequently destroyed in what it called rapid-response strikes.

Hezbollah has not independently confirmed the extent of the reported losses.

The escalation comes amid continuing cross-border exchanges of fire between Israel and Hezbollah, which have intensified since the outbreak of wider regional hostilities linked to the Gaza conflict.

Both sides have repeatedly stated that their actions are aimed at military targets, though fighting along the Israel–Lebanon border has raised concerns about further escalation.
