WHAT ARE ISRAEL’S TARGETS?
The military said it was acting on “precise intelligence” targeting Hezbollah positions and infrastructure in southern Lebanon.
“These targets are located in villages close to the border and pose an immediate threat to Israeli communities in northern Israel,” it said.
Tuesday’s operations come after Israeli air strikes killed several top Hezbollah commanders in recent weeks, including Nasrallah on Friday.
“The elimination of Nasrallah is an important step, but it is not the final one,” Defence Minister Yoav Gallant warned on Monday.
“We will use all the means that may be required – your forces, other forces, from the air, from the sea, and on land,” Gallant told soldiers in the north.
