Israel attacks on all fronts. This Thursday, the Israeli army led bombing in Lebanon aimed at “infrastructure” of Hezbollah, including an “important missile production site,” said Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz.
The army “is currently hitting the terrorist infrastructures of the terrorist organization Hezbollah in Lebanon, including the largest precision missile production site in Hezbollah which had already been attacked,” the minister said in a statement.
Confirmed strikes on the Lebanese side
These bombings took place in the Bekaa plain in southeast Lebanon, the army said in another press release.
“Among the struck targets were explosive manufacturing sites, used to develop the Hezbollah arsenal, as well as an underground site dedicated to the production and storage of strategic weapons,” added the army, saying that “Hezbollah has tried to rehabilitate these sites and these capacities, in violation of the agreements between Israel and Lebanon”.
The Lebanese National Information Agency, for its part, reported several air strikes in the eastern Bekaa region as well as in southern Lebanon.
Israel is responsible for its strikes … to the Lebanese government
“As I have already pointed out, the maximum repression policy against Hezbollah will continue”, and any attempt at this organization “to recover, to replace or threaten again will be followed by an implacable response,” warned Minister Katz.
“The Lebanese government is responsible for preventing violation of the cease-fire agreement,” he accused. At the end of November 2024, the ceasefire ended the war between Israel and the Lebanese armed movement supported by Iran.
Israel does not respect the agreement either
Despite this agreement, which entered into force after more than a year of hostilities and two months of open war having strongly weakened Hezbollah, Israel regularly leads strikes on Lebanon, mainly in the south.
The Israeli army claims to target Hezbollah and accuses the Lebanese authorities of not acting enough to disarm it.
Under the truce agreement, Hezbollah had to withdraw its fighters north of the Litani river, some 30 kilometers from the border with Israel, only the Lebanese army and the United Nations peacekeeping forces to be deployed in the sector.
Israel, who was to completely withdraw his troops from Lebanon, keeps them in five positions in the southern country, which he judges strategic.
