The attacks on Monday appear to have targeted rural areas. No casualties were immediately reported.
The November 2024 ceasefire that ended Israel’s 14-month conflict with Hezbollah was reportedly more intense than the typical, almost daily violations that Israel has committed.
Hezbollah claims that the Israeli military attacked rocket launchers and an arms depot, but it has not provided any proof of that.
Naim Qassem, the leader of Hezbollah, warned last week that the organization might take “appropriate” measures if Israel and Iran’s conflict worsens. The Iran-allied group has not yet formally stepped up to combat the conflict.

The Israeli bombing’s location has been verified by Al Jazeera’s video.
