The Israeli military on Sunday said it struck Hezbollah weapons storage facilities overnight after Lebanese state media reported an Israeli strike on an ammunition depot deep in the south.
Hezbollah has traded near-daily cross-border fire with Israeli forces in support of Hamas since the Palestinian militant group’s October 7 attack on southern Israel triggered war in the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli air force “struck two Hezbollah weapons storage facilities in southern Lebanon, containing rockets and additional weaponry,” the military said in a statement.
Late Saturday, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency said “the Israeli enemy launched a raid” on the town of Adloun, about 30 kilometers from the border with Israel, later saying the target was “an ammunition depot.”
“Six civilians sustained moderate injuries,” the NNA said on Sunday, revising the figure up from three the night before.
Rockets were still exploding about an hour after the strike was first reported, the NNA said, with videos circulating online showing several large explosions in Adloun.
