The IDF said their fighter jets had attacked on Monday night two compounds belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization in the Beqaa Valley deep into Lebanon following operation of aircraft towards the Golan Heights in recent days.

The compounds are associated with Hezbollah's air force which planned and executed various targets towards Israeli territory. The attacks were carried out in response to the operation of Hezbollah aircraft towards the Golan Heights during the past few days

Just earlier, IAF jets attacked a Hezbollah terror infrastructure and military structures in the Ayta ash Shab and Naqoura areas of southern Lebanon, the military said on Monday. 

IDF tanks and artillery conducted additional strikes in the Ayta ash Shab area, the IDF said, which can be seen below:
