The IDF said it hit weapons depots and a Hezbollah command centre in the disused Ghandour Hospital in Nabatieh al-Fawqa after a drone attack on troops near Ali Taher Ridge, and had issued an evacuation warning for Arab Salim. Lebanese media said Al-Manar reporter Ali Shabib and a cameraman were wounded during the strikes.
