On Wednesday, Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz announced that the army had struck and destroyed two additional bridges over the Litani River in Lebanon, noting that the Iran-allied Hezbollah was using them to smuggle weapons southward.

 

He said: "This is a clear message to the Lebanese government: Israel will not allow Hezbollah to use Lebanon’s state infrastructure."
