(Israel Hayom) Lilach Shoval - In the predawn hours on Sunday, Israeli intelligence detected Hizbullah's positioning in rocket-launch areas, with some weapons aimed at central Israel.

The IDF operation, aimed at eliminating the immediate threat, targeted every area where Hizbullah was identified as preparing to launch attacks on Israel.
