Overview
- Israeli forces published target maps and told residents to clear specific areas before jets struck buildings in Tayr Debba, Taybeh/Tayba, Aita al-Jabal and Zawtar al-Shariqiyah.
- Residents were instructed to move at least 500 meters from designated buildings prior to the attacks, according to IDF Arabic-language advisories.
- Israel said the raids aimed at Hezbollah military infrastructure to prevent the group from rearming nearly a year after a U.S.-mediated cease-fire.
- Lebanon’s health authorities reported injuries from the strikes, while some local outlets cited one death and additional wounded earlier in the day.
- Hezbollah issued a public refusal to disarm or hold direct talks with Israel as President Joseph Aoun signaled openness to negotiations and the cabinet met to discuss militia arms following recent U.S. outreach.
