Hezbollah launched over 50 projectiles at IDF soldiers in southern Lebanon overnight between Friday and Saturday, the military announced.
The IDF responded to the attacks with strikes on several Hezbollah terrorists and terror infrastructure sites in southern Lebanon, the military added, including rocket launch positions, weapons storage facilities, and command centers.
The military noted that it remains committed to the ceasefire, emphasizing that it will act to "remove any threat posed to the State of Israel and IDF soldiers."
Israel's Arabic-language military spokesperson Col. Ella Waweya said calm could be achieved if Hezbollah halted all hostile activity and violations of agreements, adding Israel's presence in a security zone aimed to remove threats and dismantle Hezbollah infrastructure, not harm civilians.
Earlier on Saturday, Hezbollah stated that it had targeted IDF soldiers in southern Lebanon, saying that it would "not hesitate to confront any attempt by Israel to seize land in Lebanon" despite its "commitment to the ceasefire," according to Reuters.
A senior Hezbollah official told Reuters that the terrorist organization will not allow Israel "freedom of movement" in what it described as "occupied Lebanese territory."
Lebanon accuses Israel of 'brutal attacks'
The Lebanese Army said on Saturday that Israel's "brutal attacks" in Lebanon are aimed at preventing the return of stability to the region.
"It has become clear that the continuation of these Israeli brutal attacks aims to obstruct any solution that would allow the restoration of stability in Lebanon," the Lebanese Army said on X/Twitter.
The post further accused the IDF of carrying out attacks across Lebanon earlier on Saturday, causing casualties and extensive property damage, as well as the death of a Lebanese soldier.
Lebanon's state news agency NNA reported earlier on Saturday that at least 10 people were killed after Israeli warplanes and drones hit multiple locations in southern Lebanon.
Source to 'Post': Ceasefire reached with Hezbollah
An Israeli source confirmed to The Jerusalem Post on Friday that Israel and Hezbollah had agreed to a ceasefire, with a senior United States official telling Reuters that the agreement would begin at 4 p.m. the same day.
The official added that American and Qatari negotiators achieved the deal with help from Iran.
An IDF spokesperson said at a press conference on Friday afternoon that the military will continue operating in Lebanon unless it receives different directives.
"Recent events have made one thing clear: IDF soldiers must stand between Hezbollah and Israeli civilians," said the spokesperson.
