Lebanese media reports claim Israeli aircraft bombed an intelligence facility northeast of Tyre • No Israeli source corroborates report
An unmanned Israeli
aircraft reportedly targeted an intelligence facility in Lebanon
overnight Sunday, Lebanese media reported.
According to the reports, the aircraft
bombed a facility located between the villages of Zrariyeh and
Hallousiyeh, northeast of Tyre.
Eyewitnesses reported hearing explosions and seeing several fighter jets in the area's skies.
There was no immediate corroboration for the report from any Israeli source.
If true, this would mark the first time
Israel has raided targets over its northern borders since Sept. 18,
when Syrian missiles shot down a Russian reconnaissance plane over Syria while fending off an Israeli airstrike.
Addressing the U.N. General Assembly last
month, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed that Hezbollah,
Iran's proxy in Lebanon, was building three missile production sites in Beirut.
Over the weekend, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah warned
his followers that any response to allegations would be giving the
enemy "free information" and declared that his organization would not
comment on the Israeli claims.
"Our policy is to maintain ambiguity," Nasrallah said.
