Tensions between Hezbollah and Israel persisted in the south on Wednesday.

Hezbollah announced the deaths of its fighters: Hassan Muhammad Ali Saab, Jihad Ahmad Hayek, Hassan al-Mujtaba Yousef Ahmad and Wahbi Mohammed Ibrahim, raising the death toll to four for the day.

The pro-Iranian party claimed responsibility for targeting the headquarters of the 769th Eastern Brigade (of the 91st Division) in the Kiryat Shmona barracks with dozens of Katyusha rockets and artillery shells. It also disclosed that it had targeted the Metula, Jal al-Alam and the Raheb sites.

Two rockets fired from Israel targeted the town square of Mays al-Jabal. The Israeli artillery bombarded with heavy weapons Tallet al-Awida towards Taybeh and the town of Hula, causing a fire to break out in the Qaaqour region.

In the afternoon, the village of Aita al-Shaab endured sporadic artillery shelling from Israeli army positions.

The Israeli Air Force resumed its attacks on Borgholieh, north of Tyre, raiding the area between Borgholieh and the coastline. Furthermore, the Israeli army announced the bombing of "Hezbollah military targets in the areas of Tyre and Khiam in southern Lebanon."

The "Khiam Health Care Center of the Amel International Foundation" in Khiam released a statement revealing that the center had sustained serious material damage from Israeli shelling.

Additionally, Israeli phosphorus shelling was directed at Kfar Kila and the outskirts of Odaisseh.

Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adrai affirmed on X that the army targeted Hezbollah infrastructure. He elaborated, "Last night, several Hezbollah operatives were observed entering a military building in the Yaroun area, which serves as a weapons depot. Our aircraft promptly attacked the building. Simultaneously, we targeted Hezbollah infrastructure in the Baraachit area."
