Israel says it killed 2 senior Hezbollah officials amid ongoing strikes across Lebanon
The Israel Defense Forces said Saturday morning that its strikes on Hezbollah infrastructure continue across Lebanon, after targeting dozens of sites in the south of the country overnight.
The IDF also claimed that a targeted strike in the Lebanese capital of Beirut on Friday had killed two senior Hezbollah officials, Ayyoub Hussein Yaacoub and Yasser Mohammad Mubarak.
"Overnight, the IDF conducted strikes on dozens of targets from the air and sea across multiple areas in southern Lebanon, in support of ground troops and as part of the ongoing effort to degrade the capabilities of Hezbollah in the area. Among the targets struck: weapons storage facilities, launchers, military structures, and additional terrorist infrastructure," the IDF said in a statement.
"The IDF will continue to operate with determination against Hezbollah, which chose to join the attacks on Israel and operate on behalf of the Iranian terror regime. The IDF will not allow harm to the residents of Israel," the statement continued.
