(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - More than 250 Hizbullah operatives have been killed during Israeli military operations in southern Lebanon since last week's ground offensive began, the IDF said Friday. The Israeli toll in the ground offensive against Hizbullah stands at nine. More than half a million Lebanese civilians have fled southern Lebanon following IDF evacuation warnings. IDF troops have mostly come under anti-tank missile fire and mortar attacks, though there have also been several close-quarters engagements. Meanwhile, 180 rockets were fired from Lebanon in barrages targeting northern Israel on Friday. Many of the rockets were shot down by air defenses, and the remainder struck open areas. There were no reports of injuries or major damage in the attacks.
