The Israeli army claims it has killed several suspected Hezbollah fighters in two separate incidents around the so-called “security zone” its forces have established in southern Lebanon, AFP reports.
In the first case, the military claims soldiers “identified five Hezbollah terrorists who posed a threat to them” in Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, while in the second, they “identified an armed Hezbollah terrorist” around the strategic Ali al-Taher Ridge.
“Following the identifications, the Israeli Air Force and the ground forces fired toward the terrorists and eliminated them to remove the threat,” it adds.
