This comes after the Israeli Air Force fighter jets attacked an underground Hezbollah military facility in southern Lebanon’s Beaufort Ridge, intensifying scrutiny over the fragile enforcement of ceasefire understandings.
Rehabilitating Hezbollah Base
In a statement released on August 31, the Israel Defense Forces said the strike targeted “military infrastructure, including underground infrastructure at a site of the Hezbollah terror organization, where military activity was identified” in the Beaufort Ridge area.
According to the IDF, “the existence of the site and the activity there constitute a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon,” and that “the IDF will continue to operate in order to remove any threat to the State of Israel.”
Previous reports cite attacks in June and May on underground sites used to manage Hezbollah’s fire and defense systems in the same area.
The military insisted that those repeated efforts to rehabilitate infrastructure represented a clear breach of post-war agreements and U.N. Resolution 1701.
In that earlier incident, Lebanese authorities confirmed at least one civilian killed and multiple injuries when residential areas in nearby Nabatieh were struck.
Lebanon’s Public Health Emergency Operations Center reported one civilian fatality and severally injured, while Lebanon’s Prime Minister described the attacks as blatant violations of sovereignty.
Since the November 2024 ceasefire, Israel has continued strikes citing Hezbollah’s attempts to rebuild military infrastructure in southern Lebanon, despite ceasefire terms prohibiting armed activities in the south of Litani River.
