The IDF said its troops opened fire a short time ago on four Hezbollah operatives who crossed into the security zone on Mount Ali al-Taher in southern Lebanon and approached Israeli forces in what was described as an immediate threat. According to the military spokesman, the operatives were moving under civilian cover and were traveling in the area on a bulldozer and a motorcycle.

After identifying them, Israeli forces first fired warning shots to push them back. The men continued advancing and did not respond to the troops’ calls, the IDF said. The army then fired again to remove the threat.

The IDF said a hit was identified. The incident is the latest in a series of recent confrontations in the security zone in southern Lebanon, where the army says it continues to operate to neutralize threats near its forces.
