A spokesperson for the Israeli army stated that the attacks targeted multiple Hezbollah-associated sites, including a military facility in the Zabqin area, operational infrastructure in Khiam, and a Hezbollah building in the al-Adissa (Odaisseh) area. These strikes were reported by the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant emphasized that while Israel prefers a diplomatic resolution, it is fully prepared for military confrontation if necessary. Speaking during a visit to troops stationed near Israel’s northern border with Lebanon, Gallant reiterated the importance of seeking a political solution but also underscored Israel’s readiness for conflict.
“We are working on a political solution. That is always the better option,” Gallant stated.
