Violent Israeli strikes target Ali al-Taher hills for 4th time since ceasefire
Violent Israeli airstrikes targeted at dawn Friday the Ali al-Taher hills in the Nabatieh region, with the sounds of explosions echoing across south Lebanon.
The Israeli army claimed that it bombed the area after detecting Hezbollah “activities” in it, saying the strikes hit “weapons, military buildings and subterranean infrastructure.”
The bombing sparked major blazes in the area’s forests that took firefighters four hours to extinguish. It also damaged dozens of nearby houses and shops.
This is the fourth time that the area has been targeted since the November ceasefire, with Israel claiming that it contains a major Hezbollah underground site.
