Wave of “Israeli” airstrikes pound South Lebanon

The Israeli air force carried out a wave of airstrikes on areas in southern Lebanon, targeting what it claims are attempts by Hezbollah to rebuild weapons depots and military infrastructure, “Israel's” army radio reported today, Wednesday.

The radio station claimed that the attacks are a response to renewed Hezbollah activities in southern regions, but did not disclose specific locations or the extent of the damage.

A Roya correspondent reported that “Israeli” warplanes carried out more than 10 airstrikes, targeting areas around the town of Zawtar al-Sharqiyah. A series of other “violent” strikes hit the Iqlim al-Tuffah region.

The "Israeli" military issued a statement, claiming it struck “Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure sites” including a “Hezbollah weapons storage facilities, a missile launcher and Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure which stored engineering tools that allowed for the reestablishment of terrorist infrastructure in the area.”
