The IDF, under the direction of the Intelligence Directorate and Northern Command, launched a wave of airstrikes today targeting Hezbollah terror sites in Lebanon’s Beqaa region. The strikes focused on military compounds used by Hezbollah's elite “Radwan Force” for weapons training and tactical drills aimed at preparing yet again, attacks on IDF soldiers and Israeli civilians.
This force is infamous for its "Conquer the Galilee" plan, a long-standing threat that saw a major setback in September 2024 when Israeli operations eliminated its commanders in Beirut and southern Lebanon during Operation Northern Arrows. Since then, Hezbollah has attempted to rebuild Radwan’s operational strength — efforts that the IDF has worked continuously to disrupt over the past two years.
Defense Minister Israel Katz stated: “Our strikes in Lebanon are a clear message to the Hezbollah terror organization — which is working to rebuild its Radwan Force infiltration capabilities against Israel — and to the Lebanese government, which is obligated to uphold its commitments to Israel. We will strike every terrorist, eliminate every threat, and respond with maximum force to any attempt at rebuilding.”
Katz emphasized that Hezbollah’s use of these training camps, along with their storage of weapons, violates Israeli-Lebanese agreements and poses an ongoing threat to Israel's national security.
