The Israeli military announced that its forces killed more than 15 Hezbollah members in southern Lebanon over the recent weekend, as low-level clashes persisted despite a fragile ceasefire.
This comes as the IDF has reported eliminating over 30 Hezbollah operatives since the truce took effect around mid-April 2026, alongside the destruction of hundreds of terror sites and weapon caches in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah-affiliated sources claimed Israeli fire has killed at least 15 people in Lebanon since the ceasefire began.
Lebanese officials and media have reported civilian casualties in some strikes, while Israel maintains operations focus solely on militant targets. The border region remains tense, with sporadic incidents involving anti-tank missiles, IEDs, and small-arms fire reported in recent days.
The developments highlight the challenges in fully implementing the ceasefire, originally tied to broader regional de-escalation efforts following the Iran-related conflict. Both sides continue monitoring the volatile frontier, with the IDF vowing to respond to any threats.
