The IDF, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Defense Minister Israel Katz on Sunday afternoon announced that the air force was attacking Hezbollah’s stronghold of Dahiyeh in Beirut, after the terror group ignored the ceasefire brokered by US President Donald Trump on June 1.

This was a low grade attack in Beirut, appearing to try to walk the tightrope between pressuring Hezbollah more, while avoiding antagonizing Iran too much over a more serious attack on its main proxy.

Dahiyeh, a suburb south of Beirut, is an area with a heavy Hezbollah terror presence.

Washington was reportedly informed ahead of the strikes. The IDF dropped at least 10 one-ton bombs on one command center, with Israeli news outlets reporting that there was at least one other target hit.
