Israel's military has confirmed that it conducted airstrikes targeting Hezbollah positions in Lebanon's Beqaa Valley. The strikes were part of an ongoing operation against the Hezbollah terrorist organization in the region. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released a statement on Saturday announcing the strikes on terror targets in the Beqaa area.
These airstrikes follow a series of explosions that shook the Lebanese capital of Beirut. The Beqaa Valley, situated in the eastern part of Lebanon near the Syrian border, has been a frequent target of Israeli airstrikes in recent days.
Humanitarian organizations, including Doctors Without Borders (MSF), have raised concerns about the escalating violence in the region. MSF warned that the humanitarian needs in the Beqaa Valley were surpassing the capacity of aid agencies to provide assistance. Many residents have been forced to flee their homes, and existing shelters are struggling to accommodate the growing number of displaced individuals.
