On the night from Monday to Tuesday, the Israeli army launched a "limited military operation" in Lebanon under the codename "Northern Arrows." Israeli forces crossed the border into southern Lebanon to conduct air raids on Hezbollah.

The target of the Israeli army is Hezbollah bases in the border area of southern Lebanon. The justification for the attack is that these points pose a "direct threat" to Israeli communities.

They eradicated the rocket warehouse. The video shows explosions

The Israeli army released a video of the attack on the Hezbollah rocket storage located 1 mile from the international airport in Beirut. A kindergarten and elementary school were also reportedly operating nearby.

The video shows explosions occurring in the surface-to-air rocket warehouse. "This infrastructure poses a threat to both the Lebanese and international airspace," commented the Israeli army.

"A surface-to-air missile launcher storage facility that Hezbollah had positioned approx. 1.5 km from Beirut’s international airport was dismantled in a precise IDF strike," reports a social media post.

The Israel Defense Forces declared that similar actions would continue to be conducted. The goal is to weaken Hezbollah's military potential in Lebanon.
