JERUSALEM (AA) - The Israeli army on Tuesday said it destroyed the military infrastructure for the Hezbollah group in southern Lebanon in response to the group's firing of rockets on northern Israel.

The Israeli army in a statement said its warplanes attacked a military compound and infrastructure for Hezbollah in the villages of Jibchit, Mansouri, and others in southern Lebanon.

The statement also said its artillery attacked a target -- without specifying it -- near the Yaroun town, and claimed removing a threat.

Early on Tuesday, the Israeli army confirmed a Hezbollah attack on the Israeli Meron air control base in northern Israel, with dozens of rockets.

Tension has flared along the border between Lebanon and Israel amid intermittent exchange of fire between Israeli forces and Hezbollah, in the deadliest clashes since the two sides fought a full-scale war in 2006.

The border tension came amid an ongoing Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by Hamas on Oct. 7.
