Jerusalem, 18 March, 2026 (TPS-IL) — The IDF (Israel Defense Forces) said it struck two crossings over the Litani River in southern Lebanon a short while ago, which were used by Hezbollah terrorists and commanders as to cross the Litani from north to south, closer to Israeli territory.

In addition, Hezbollah uses these crossings to transfer thousands of weapons, rockets, and rocket launchers used by it to carry out terrorist plots from the southern Litani area against IDF forces and the citizens of the State of Israel.

“The crossings were struck to prevent harm to the citizens of the State of Israel and also to the citizens of Lebanon,” said the IDF.

“The IDF is operating forcefully against the decision of the Hezbollah terror organization to join the campaign and operate under the auspices of the Iranian terror regime and will not allow harm to the citizens of the State of Israel,” it added.
