JERUSALEM, March 17 (Xinhua) -- Israel military said on Monday night that it launched a series of airstrikes in Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah military sites.
A military statement said weapons were identified in the attacked sites. The military warned it "will continue to operate in order to remove any threat to the State of Israel and will prevent any attempt by Hezbollah."
The Saudi television channel Al-Hadath reported that Israeli aircraft struck seven different sites in Lebanon.
There were no immediate reports of casualties or the extent of the damage.
The airstrikes were the latest in a series of Israeli airstrikes since a truce took effect last November, following 14 months of cross-border fighting between Israel and Hezbollah. ■
