Israel attacked border areas between Lebanon and Syria on Thursday evening, announces the Israeli military (IDF).
The Iran-backed Hezbollah is acting, according to IDF, in the areas to smuggle weapons into Lebanon. "These activities constitute a blatant violation of the agreements on ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon", writes the military in a statement.
Several people, the number is unknown, are said to have been injured in the attack on what is reported to be an "illegal border crossing" near the Lebanese border town of Wadi Khaled. The town borders the Syrian province of Homs, according to the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).
