Israel strikes Hezbollah and Hamas targets in Lebanon ahead of a key disarmament meeting

Israel targeted Hezbollah and Hamas military infrastructure in southern and eastern Lebanon to disrupt rearmament ahead of Lebanon's government disarmament meeting Thursday.

  • On Monday, the Israel Defense Forces struck areas in southern Lebanon and eastern Bekaa Valley targeting Hezbollah and Hamas infrastructure about an hour and a half after evacuation warnings.
  • Amid preparations for a Thursday meeting on disarmament, Israel said it began striking to prevent Hezbollah from rebuilding military capabilities and in response to continued violations.
  • Avichay Adraee, IDF Arabic-language spokesman, warned residents of Kfar Hatta, Annan, Al-Manara and Ain al-Tineh to evacuate and move at least 300 meters from homes.
  • Al-Manara suffered "the complete destruction of a house," according to the NNA, dozens of families fled Kfar Hatta after the evacuation notice, and a drone strike in Braikeh wounded two people, the Lebanese Health Ministry reported.
  • Despite the truce since Nov. 27, 2024, Israel has continued near-daily strikes, killing at least 350 people, while the Lebanese army aims to clear south Litani by the end of 2025.
