The IDF killed several Hezbollah terrorists and destroyed terror targets in southern Lebanon on Friday, the military said on Saturday.
According to the statement, the terrorists were targeted after operating in close proximity to IDF soldiers.
In addition, over 50 Hezbollah infrastructure sites in various areas were struck, including command centers and other military structures which had been used by Hezbollah for terror purposes.
In an additional incident on Friday, Hezbollah launched several rockets toward IDF soldiers operating in southern Lebanon. The rockets fell in open areas.
The attacks came as the IDF decided to raise restrictions in some of Israel's northern border communities, with Meron, Bar Yohai, Or HaGanuz, and Safsufa transferring to partial activity.
Also on Friday, two people were lightly injured, and a vehicle was destroyed by a Hezbollah drone attack in Misgav Am in northern Israel, the Fire and Rescue Service said in a statement.
The IDF confirmed that the incident was due to a Hezbollah drone that crossed into northern Israel and called it a "violation of the ceasefire understandings by the Hezbollah terrorist organization."
IDF issues evacuation warnings
Earlier on Saturday, IDF Arabic Spokesperson Col. (res.) Avichay Adraee issued evacuation warnings for several towns and villages in southern Lebanon in an X/Twitter post.
The post stated that the military will act against Hezbollah due to the terrorist organization's ceasefire violations, adding that the IDF means no harm to the civilian population, who must evacuate for their own safety.
Maariv later cited Lebanese media as reporting seven people killed in southern Lebanon following alleged strikes by the IDF.
