Lebanese media reported that six Israeli strikes targeted the outskirts of Janta, a town in Lebanon’s eastern mountains near Syrian territory. Israeli jets also hit the Shaara hills in the same region.
The airstrikes extended to the Syrian side of the border, pounding Sarghaya, a town situated directly opposite Lebanon’s mountainous areas.
In southern Lebanon, Israel struck Srifa village and four ready-made rooms in Tayr Harfa, as drones were heard over several areas.
No casualties have been reported so far.
The Israeli military claimed that the strikes in Srifa and the Bekaa Valley were aimed at Hezbollah infrastructure.

Despite the November 27 ceasefire, Israel has kept up attacks in southern and eastern Lebanon, with over 2,700 violations reported by Lebanese authorities.
Tel Aviv has also increased its hostile activity in Syria in recent months, allegedly hitting military infrastructure, air defense systems, and surface-to-air missile sites.
The assault coincided with a large-scale Israeli airstrike on Houthi sites in Yemen’s Hodeidah, following a missile attack on Ben Gurion Airport.
