The IDF Destroyed a Surface-To-Air Missile Launcher Storage Facility

The IDF Destroyed a Surface-To-Air Missile Launcher Storage Facility That Hezbollah Had Positioned Approximately 1.5 Kilometers From Lebanon’s International Airport

Hezbollah's Aerial Defense Array is equipped with surface-to-air missile batteries which are hidden within civilian infrastructure, taking cover behind Lebanon's civilian population.

The surface-to-air missiles pose a threat to international airspace, including passenger planes, and can target any aircraft flying in Lebanese airspace.

As part of the waves of strikes in Lebanon, in a precise strike by the Israeli Air Force, fighter jets targeted infrastructure holding a surface-to-air missile launcher positioned near Beirut's international airport. This infrastructure, like other infrastructure of Hezbollah's Aerial Defense Array, are spread across Lebanon and pose a threat to the international aviation space.

As part of Operation "Northern Arrows", the Israeli Air Force has struck dozens of headquarters, storage facilities, and surface-to-air missile launchers of various ranges belonging to Hezbollah.

These strikes enable the completion of hundreds of attack sorties by aircraft and fighter jets across Lebanon to remove the various threats.

The IDF will continue to strike, harm, and degrade Hezbollah's military capabilities in Lebanon.
