Israeli warplanes carried out airstrikes on multiple locations in southern Lebanon and the western Beqaa on Monday, targeting what the Israeli military said were facilities and infrastructure belonging to Hezbollah and Hamas.
The strikes hit buildings in the southern towns of Anan and Kfarhatta, as well as Ain al-Tineh and al-Manara in the western Bekaa.
No casualties were reported, but the attacks caused significant material damage to the targeted buildings.
Earlier, Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee issued warnings to residents in the targeted areas, urging them to evacuate ahead of the strikes.
