- Southern Front: Kfarchouba-Shebaa Heavily Bombed Overnight
Tensions and risks of escalation are increasing on the southern border as an Israeli civilian was killed in a Hezbollah ambush on Thursday night in the Shebaa farms area. The Israeli army responded by heavy shelling that targeted the villages of Shebaa and Kfarchouba. It said that it targeted a military truck which led to the death of the driver.
Hezbollah announced in a statement, "Ambushing a motorized Israeli convoy near Rwaysat Al Alam, Kfarshuba at 23:10, targeting it with guided artillery and missile weaponry, which lead to the destruction of two vehicles." According to the statement, the Israeli army "created a smoke screen to withdraw their losses by helicopter from the ambush site."
Israeli army spokesperson Avichae Adraee revealed on his X account that "as a result of Hezbollah firing anti-tank missiles in Har Dov (Shebaa) area, an Israeli citizen was injured and later died from his wounds." Adraee also referred to a "difficult security event on the borders with Lebanon."
In this context, the Israeli army declared in a statement "striking the sources of fire and shelling the location of tank fire in Shebaa area."
"At midnight, a military truck driver was killed while targeting a Hezbollah site in Shebaa farms," the statement revealed. The pro-iranian group did not confirm this information.
According to the same text, "Israeli fighter jets struck Hezbollah’s terrorist infrastructure in Markaba, south of Lebanon."
In the early morning, Israeli warplanes destroyed two houses and damaged several others.
Afterwards, they raided Jabour Abu Rashid heights, Rachaya al-Foukhar, Kfar Hamam, Al-Mari plain and Majidiya al Ghajar perimeter.
In turn, Hezbollah responded with artillery and missile shelling on Israeli military gatherings in Shebaa and Sammaqa hills which led to a fire outbreak in the region.
Later, at around 6 AM, intensive Israeli spy drone flights in Shebaa were recorded, accompanied by artillery shelling in Khiam, Hamames and Bab Al Thaniye.
