#Israel said it hit >100 #Hezbollah command centres & military sites in #Beirut, the eastern #BekaaValley region & southern #Lebanon.

Most of the targets were located in #civilian populated areas.

Witnesses in Beirut & southern Lebanon said they did not receive advance warnings of the strikes, which the military issued to #civilians in before past attacks.

#IDF spox Lt Col Nadav Shoshani told reporters it was not always possible to issue warnings when carrying out targeted #assassinations.

Snr Israeli ofcls described the regime in #Iran as battered but resilient, stable & feeling triumphant after withstanding a month of strikes by 2 of the world’s most powerful militaries.

…Some experts worry that Israel’s growing proficiency at targeted killings, even when conducted with precision, is creating a dynamic of dependency on #assassinations & a tendency to expand the boundaries of who can be targeted.
