On Friday, November 17, the Israeli army announced that its fighter jets attacked several "terrorist targets of Hezbollah in Lebanon," including terrorist infrastructure, a weapons depot, and a military structure. In a message on X, the Israeli army stated that they also targeted "a terrorist cell" identified in southern Lebanon.

Since then, Hezbollah has conducted attacks on Israeli territory through rocket and mortar fire. In response to these attacks, Israel has targeted the positions of this group's militants. Israeli officials, along with leaders from the United States and several European countries, have repeatedly warned Hezbollah and the Islamic Republic about the escalation of the war. France has warned that the expansion of the war in the region will place a heavy responsibility on Iran.
