Israel-Iran Big news: During raids in the southern Lebanon this past week, the IDF has discovered a mobile missile system aimed at the Galilee Panhandle. IDF Brigade 769 is part of the 91st Division. The brigade discovered a ready-to-launch missile system with 24 rockets linked to a civilian structure in southern Lebanon.
The system, along with other items from a weapons cache hidden in a nearby forest, was seized and brought back to Israel. In the course of Operation Northern Arrows, the IDF has said it has destroyed around 300 terrorist infrastructures, eliminated a number of terrorists, and uncovered underground Hezbollah facilities in southern Lebanon.
The IDF also said it had found stockpiles of weapons and ammunition that included equipment such as Kornet missiles and RPGs.
Lebanese authorities said on Saturday that the Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon over the last day have killed at least 40 people including several children. This comes after heavy Israeli bombardment pounded the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut overnight.
At least seven people were killed in the coastal city of Tyre late on Friday, Lebanon’s health ministry said. The Israeli military has previously ordered swathes of the city to evacuate but there were no orders published by the Israeli military spokesperson on social media platform X before Friday’s strikes.
The ministry said two children were among the dead. Rescue operations were ongoing and other body parts retrieved in the aftermath of the attack would undergo DNA testing to identify them, the ministry added.
Strikes in nearby towns on Saturday killed 13 people, including seven medics from rescue groups affiliated to Hezbollah and its ally Amal, the health ministry said.
