According to the IDF, strikes were carried out in two waves on a series of sites belonging to the terror group in Kafr Kila on Saturday morning and afternoon.
The IDF said Kafr Kila is a Hezbollah stronghold, where the terror group “uses the infrastructure in the area for terror purposes, exploiting the civilian population and using it as a human shield for its operations.”
