IDF targeted 'Aziz' unit infrastructure
According to the IDF, many of the targeted assets belong to Hezbollah's 'Aziz' unit, which reportedly launches attacks from southwestern Lebanon into Israeli territory and conducts other terror activities in the area.
"The Tyre area serves as a significant stronghold for Hezbollah and the Aziz unit, which coordinates operations against Israel and IDF forces," the IDF said in a statement on Telegram on Friday.
The IDF additionally emphasized that it took "extensive measures" to minimize civilian harm, including various warnings to civilians in the area.
