In a separate development, Hezbollah claimed to have detonated two explosive devices to counter a new attempt by Israeli forces to infiltrate southern Lebanon.
The Iran-backed organisation said it activated the devices as “an enemy infantry force was trying to infiltrate the town of Maroun al-Ras in Lebanon, near the border”.
