Israel has identified approximately 30 projectiles crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory in a barrage it blamed on the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and described as the deadliest against it since October 7.

According to a statement from the military, overnight following the attack, Israeli warplanes conducted airstrikes against Hezbollah targets deep inside Lebanese territory and in southern Lebanon.

The Israel defense forces (IDF) hit a series of Hezbollah targets including weapons caches and terrorist infrastructure, the statement said.
