After a relatively calm day, repeated fire exchanges renewed along the southern border on Sunday night. Israeli bombardments and airstrikes targeted Aita al-Shaab, Rachaya al-Foukhar, Kfar Hamam, Bani Hayan, Houla, and Blida.
Earlier, Lebanon’s electricity company, Electricité du Liban (EDL), announced that the power station in Marjayoun, in southern Lebanon, was targeted late Saturday night by Israeli artillery.
In a statement released on Sunday, EDL stated that the station is out of service due to “serious damage to transformers, power cells, and high-voltage networks.”
“The company is currently assessing the technical situation of the station to take appropriate measures,” the statement added.
Additionally, flare bombs were launched at villages in the western and central sectors during the night. Reconnaissance aircraft were also present until this morning above the area.
On its part, Hezbollah claimed on Sunday that it targeted a deployment of Israeli soldiers near the Hadb Yarine site. The pro-Iranian group also targeted the Rweissat al-Alam and Ramtha sites, as well as the headquarters of the 91st Division in Eilat.
Additionally, members of the Mission for Medical Relief association, in cooperation with the Lebanese Civil Defense and the health authority, successfully extinguished a fire that broke out in the Hadb el-Boustan region due to artillery shelling and phosphorus bombs fired by the Israeli army.
Meanwhile, the Arabic-speaking spokesperson for the Israeli army, Avichay Adraee, posted images on social media showing reserve soldiers training in preparation for a possible escalation on the border with Lebanon.
"Forces from the 5th Brigade conducted an exercise last week in which they trained to maneuver in difficult terrain, advance along mountainous trails, and activate fire and intelligence-gathering capabilities," the statement read.
Adraee also declared that a "surprise exercise was held for the forces of the 920th Reserve Battalion, under the 769th Brigade."
