Israeli military says it struck Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon

Dec 9 (Reuters) - The ⁠Israeli ⁠military ‍said on Tuesday that it struck infrastructure belonging to Hezbollah ‍in several areas in southern Lebanon, including ​what it described as a training compound ​used by the armed group's Radwan forces.

Military structures and a launch site belonging to Hezbollah were ​also hit in the attacks, the military added in a statement.

The strikes ​come less than a week after Israel and Lebanon ‌both sent civilian envoys to a military committee monitoring their ceasefire, ​a step towards a ⁠months-old U.S. demand that the two countries broaden talks in ‌line with President Donald Trump's Middle East peace agenda.

Israel and Lebanon agreed to ‌a U.S.-brokered ceasefire in 2024 that ended more ‌than a year of fighting between Israel and Hezbollah. Since then, they have traded accusations ‍over violations.

Lebanon's state news agency, NNA, reported that Israeli warplanes carried ⁠out a series of airstrikes targeting several places in the south.
