Israeli Army Shells Hezbollah Positions in South Lebanon

The Israeli army said on Sunday that its fighter jets carried out several airstrikes against Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon last night.
Israel said the strikes targeted buildings and other infrastructure utilized by Hezbollah in the southern towns of al-Khyam and Aita al-Shaab, the Times of Israel newspaper reported Sunday.
The Israeli army also carried out artillery shelling on a number of other sites in southern Lebanon.
In three separate statements on Saturday, Lebanon-based Hezbollah said it targeted “with the appropriate weapons” two facilities in the Israeli settlement of Metula, a building in the settlement of Manara, and two buildings in the settlement of Shtula.
The Iran-backed party and Israeli forces have traded cross-border fire a day after the Israel-Hamas war started on Oct. 7 on an almost daily basis. Since then, more than 400 people have been killed in Lebanon, most of them Hezbollah fighters, and more than 70 civilians and non-combatants.
