The Israel Defense Forces announced that they are conducting ground raids against Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon.
The IDF's official Telegram channel reported that several hours ago, the troops began localized raids against Hezbollah terrorist targets and infrastructure located in villages near the border and posing a direct threat to communities in northern Israel.
It is noted that the ground forces are operating according to a methodological plan developed by the General Staff and the Northern Command, according to which the soldiers have been training and preparing for the past months. They are supported by the air force and artillery:
"These operations have been approved and are being carried out in accordance with the decision of the political echelon. Operation Northern Arrows will continue in accordance with the assessment of the situation and in parallel with the military operations in Gaza and in other areas."
