Israeli warplanes carried out seven strikes at dawn on Ali Taher Ridge in southern Lebanon, Lebanon Debate reported. The outlet posted video of the strike wave but did not report casualties, damage or an operational purpose. In a July 10 statement about the same ridge, the IDF said Hezbollah operates underground infrastructure there and that Israeli forces were preventing terrorists from emerging or moving through it. That earlier statement said an airstrike killed a Hezbollah operative near a shaft after he posed an immediate threat. The IDF had not issued a statement confirming Saturday's strikes by publication time.
