IDF says over 100 Hezbollah terrorists killed as jets hammer targets in Lebanon

The IDF has killed 100 Hezbollah terrorists since the beginning of the war, the military said on Tuesday.

This was facilitated by the 869 Field Intelligence Unit and the 91st Division, which have gleaned intelligence and identified Hezbollah terrorists, enabling their elimination in a joint operation with the Israel Air Force (IAF), ground troops, and artillery forces.  

The IDF further added that the soldiers cooperated with the unit's drone operators, working both via technological means and action in the field.

The military also announced that fighter jets had struck and eliminated a Hezbollah terrorist in the Naqoura area of southern Lebanon. 

In addition, in the areas of Ayta ash Shab and Odaisseh in southern Lebanon, jets targeted a terror infrastructure and military building belonging to the terror group.

The military added that its artillery had fired at the southern Lebanese areas of Shuba, Chihine, Houla, Rachaya Al Foukhar, and Majdal Zoun to remove a threat.

The IDF also noted that a suspicious aerial launch had crossed into Israeli territory on Tuesday morning from Lebanon and had fallen in the Hermon area. No injuries were reported and the incident was being investigated.  

Earlier on Tuesday, Israeli media, citing Lebanese claims, reported that an Israeli unmanned aerial vehicle struck a motorcycle in Naqoura in southern Lebanon.  The reports also claimed there had been casualties following the attack.
