The escalation came a day after Hezbollah’s leader said his group is already engaged in unprecedented fighting along the Lebanon-Israel border.
Israeli warplanes have conducted air strikes along the border with Lebanon as the militant Hezbollah group attacked several Israeli army posts, including one that was struck with two large rockets.
The rockets, whose name means “volcano” in Arabic, were previously used by Hezbollah and Syrian government forces to destroy the fortifications of Syrian opposition fighters. Israeli military spokesman Avichay Adraee posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Israeli warplanes, tanks and artillery fired towards the source of fire on the Lebanese side of the border and also targeted some Hezbollah arms depots, infrastructure and posts used by the Lebanese militant group.
On Saturday Hezbollah said one of its fighters was killed along the border raising the death toll for the militant group since the fighting began to 56.
