Israel says struck hundreds of Hezbollah members in 'surprise' attack across Lebanon

Israel's Defense Minister, Israel Katz, said the military had carried out a surprise attack on Wednesday targeting hundreds of Hezbollah members across Lebanon.

"The military carried out a surprise strike on hundreds of Hezbollah members at command centers across Lebanon. This is the largest concentrated blow Hezbollah has suffered since Operation Beepers," Katz said in a video statement, referring to a major 2024 operation against Hezbollah involving pager bombs.
