The IDF stated on Motzei Shabbos that the Air Force carried out strikes in Lebanon after the Hezbollah terror group violated the ceasefire.

“Air Force aircraft targeted loaded rocket launchers prepared for firing aimed at Israel, in violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon,” the IDF stated.

“The IDF continues to be committed to the understandings reached regarding the ceasefire in Lebanon. The IDF remains deployed in southern Lebanon and will act to remove any threat to the State of Israel and its citizens.”

The IDF reported on Friday that troops of the 769th Brigade, which are deployed in southern Lebanon, discovered a large cache of weapons, including Kornet missile launchers, missiles, rifles, and other military equipment hidden in a dense mountainous area.

The troops also found and destroyed a Hezbollah anti-tank missile launch site used by the terror group to fire at Israel over the past year.

In another operation, the troops found a weapons cache with RPG missiles and mortar shells.
