Israeli jets have launched strikes in Lebanon after the military assessed that the Iranian-backed Hezbollah was preparing to fire rockets and missiles towards Israel.
"The IDF identified the Hezbollah terrorist organization preparing to fire missiles and rockets toward Israeli territory. In response to these threats, the IDF is striking terror targets in Lebanon," the Israel Defence Forces said in a statement.
Announcing the strikes in a video released at the same time, military spokesman Daniel Hagari said that "Hezbollah will soon fire rockets, and possibly missiles and UAVs, towards Israeli territory".
