IDF hits Hezbollah launchers after rocket fire
|
[IsraelTimes] Military says it struck a weapons factory, Hezbollah command room and other sites on Tuesday, as defense minister says ‘center of gravity is moving’ from Gaza to the north
Hezbollah rocket launchers used to fire some 45 rockets at northern Israel on Tuesday were targeted in IDF drone strikes, while Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told troops the military was in the process of shifting its attention from Gaza to Lebanon.
A barrage of 30 rockets was launched at the Mount Meron area in the afternoon, with the Israel Defense Forces reporting that some were intercepted and others struck open areas. Another 15 rockets were fired at the Western Galilee, some of which were intercepted by air defenses, the IDF added.
There were no injuries in the attacks.
The launchers were later hit in southern Lebanon’s at-Tiri and Mansouri, according to the military.
Additionally, Israeli fighter jets struck a building used by Hezbollah in Rachaf, the IDF added.
The military also confirmed that several drones were launched from Lebanon at northern Israel earlier in the evening.
The IDF said some of the drones were shot down, while others impacted near Kibbutz Ami’ad in the Upper Galilee. There were no injuries.
Footage showed a Hezbollah drone flying over northern Israel, as sirens sounded in Rosh Pina and several other towns.
Hezbollah took responsibility for the attack, claiming to have targeted an Israeli military site.
The IDF also said fighter jets struck a Hezbollah weapons manufacturing plant in southern Lebanon’s Jouaiyya earlier in the day, along with a command room and other buildings used by the terror group in Nabatieh, Mansouri, and Kafr Kila.
Separately, the IDF said a cell of Hezbollah operatives spotted in southern Lebanon’s Houla was targeted in an airstrike.
Speaking to troops during a drill simulating a ground offensive in Lebanon, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Israel is shifting its focus to the northern front as it aims to soon achieve its objectives in the Gaza Strip.
