Israel says it killed Hezbollah man trying to rebuild group in southern Lebanon
2025-08-26
[IsraelTimes] A Hezbollah operative was killed in an Israeli drone strike in the southern Lebanon town of Tebnine earlier today, the military says.

According to the IDF, the operative was involved in restoring Hezbollah military infrastructure in the nearby town of Beit Lif, which it says is a violation of the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon.

The Lebanese health ministry reported one dead in a strike on a car in Tebnine.

The strike is the first since the IDF said it hit a Hezbollah arms depot on Friday.

On Thursday, news site Axios reported that the US had asked Israel to dial back its attacks inside Lebanon as it sought to bolster Beirut. According to the report, the US believed a temporary reduction in strikes would help the Lebanese government carry out a promised operation to disarm Hezbollah.

Since a November 2024 ceasefire, the IDF says it has killed over 230 Hezbollah operatives in strikes in Lebanon, saying they were violating the terms of the truce.
