Israeli ground troops spotted the militants and called for air support. The IDF said it is still committed to the ceasefire with Hamas, but did not say whether the gunmen killed were members of that group.
Two members of the Lebanese Hezbollah group were killed and seven other people were injured on Monday afternoon in two separate Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon, according to official sources. Israel said it carried out an airstrike in southern Lebanon targeting Hezbollah member Mohammad Ali Hadid for violating the ceasefire that began in November 2024.
Israeli media said the military has launched hundreds of airstrikes and over a thousand raids in southern Lebanon since the truce began, killing more than 300 Hezbollah fighters accused of breaking the agreement.
