IAF planes struck Hezbollah targets in the southern Lebanese village of Bint Jbail.

Lebanese soldier killed in strike on Hezbollah leader
Meanwhile, one Lebanese soldier was killed and three others were wounded when the Israel Air Force targeted a senior Hezbollah figure in south Lebanon early Monday afternoon.

The IDF spokesperson said the strike, in the Qasmiyeh village north of the port city of Tyre, targeted a vehicle in which the Hezbollah figure was thought to have been traveling. The IDF expressed regret a Lebanese soldier was inadvertently killed in the strike.

The IAF also carried out air strikes Monday in support of ground troops operating near the south Lebanese village of Taibeh despite an agreement to halt raids for 48 hours, the Israel Defense Forces said.

The strikes were meant to protect ground forces operating in the area, and were not targeting anyone or anything specific, the IDF said. Israel agreed to halt its air operations in Lebanon for two days after 56 Lebanese civilians were killed in a strike on Sunday in the village of Qana.

Three IDF soldiers were lightly wounded when Hezbollah gunmen fired anti-tank rockets at them during efforts to rescue a tank and a Puma vehicle that had been hit by Hezbollah fire during battles in Taibeh.
