The Israeli military stated that it has targeted approximately 100 Hezbollah locations in Lebanon since Friday. The Israeli forces reported that despite the existing ceasefire, Hezbollah launched enemy aircraft, mortar shells, and explosive drones near Israeli soldiers in southern Lebanon. In response to these violations, the Israeli army conducted strikes on observation posts, suspected terrorist infrastructure, and a weapons depot on Saturday. The fighting began earlier on Friday, with targets in the city of Tyre in southern Lebanon also being hit. Separately, the US Department of State had announced on Friday that the mediated ceasefire had been extended for another 45 days. However, the source noted that Hezbollah, which is not part of the Lebanese government, is not directly taking part in the peace negotiations. In recent weeks, the group has continued to regularly post videos documenting attacks against Israeli soldiers and military vehicles.
