BEIRUT: A series of Israeli air strikes killed four people in south and east Lebanon, the health ministry said Friday, referring to strikes that occurred the previous evening.
“The series of strikes launched by the Israeli enemy Thursday evening led to the death of four people,” the Lebanese health ministry said.
The Israeli military said Thursday that it had targeted Hezbollah “infrastructure that was used for producing and storing strategic weapons” in south Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz described one of the targets as Hezbollah’s “biggest precision missile manufacturing site.”
More than a year of hostilities — including two months of all-out war between Israel and Hezbollah which largely ended with a November ceasefire — left the militant group badly weakened.
