Jerusalem:
Israel launched overnight attacks on Hezbollah “terrorist” targets in Lebanon, the Israeli army said in a statement early Tuesday.
“The Israeli army is attacking military targets of the terrorist organization Hezbollah on Lebanese territory,” the report said.
Since the start of the war, sparked by Hamas’s unprecedented attack on Israel on October 7, clashes at the Israel-Lebanon border have killed around ten people on the Lebanese side, mostly fighters, but also a Reuters journalist and two citizens.
At least two people have been killed on the Israeli side.
The international community fears an escalation of the conflict between the pro-Iranian Lebanese Hezbollah, an ally of Hamas, and the Israeli army.
Israel began evacuating thousands of residents in 28 locations in the north of the country after these border clashes.
