Tel Aviv [Israel], November 15 – The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that Israel Air Force fighter jets, guided by the IDF’s Intelligence Division, carried out airstrikes Thursday night on weapons warehouses belonging to Hezbollah in the Dahieh neighborhood of Beirut. These strikes are part of Israel’s ongoing campaign to disrupt Hezbollah’s operations within Lebanon.
The IDF noted that the targeted Hezbollah facilities were situated in densely populated civilian areas, accusing the group of using Lebanese civilians as “human shields” by embedding terrorist infrastructure within city centers. “This operation highlights Hezbollah’s cynical exploitation of Lebanese citizens as human shields,” stated the IDF.
Prior to the airstrikes, the IDF reported that it took measures to minimize civilian casualties, including issuing advance warnings to residents in the area.
