Israeli Army Bombs "Hezbollah Targets" in South Lebanon, Citing Breach of Security Understandings

The Israeli Army announced on Tuesday that its forces attacked "Hezbollah targets" in various areas of South Lebanon, including what it described as a "rehabilitation and training complex for the Radwan Force and military structures." Israel accused the organization of breaching security understandings and threatening its security.

Details of the Israeli Strikes:

• Targets: The strikes hit a training complex, military facilities, and a launch site belonging to Hezbollah.

• Justification: The Israeli Army stated that the targeted sites were used for military training "in preparation for carrying out attacks against Israel," considering this a "breach of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon."

• Locations: Lebanon’s National News Agency reported Israeli air raids in the Iqlim al-Tuffah region, including areas between the towns of Azza, Roumine Arki, and the heights of Jabal Safi.

Context of Ongoing Escalation:

• Persistent Tension: The raids come amid intermittent escalation despite the ceasefire agreement that ended the war in November 2024. Israel continues to conduct strikes inside Lebanese territory and maintains forces in five southern points.

• Radwan Deployment: The strikes coincide with reports of the Radwan Force re-deploying and reinforcing observation posts near the Blue Line.

• Displacement Fears: The ongoing tension and exchange of limited rocket fire and Israeli responses have led to new waves of displacement in southern towns, amidst fears of the situation sliding into a new round of confrontation.
