MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Monday its forces had launched limited ground raids against Hezbollah targets in the border area of southern Lebanon.
The Israeli Air Force and artillery are supporting the IDF ground forces during the operation, striking military targets, the statement said.
An explosion was also heard in the skies over the Syrian capital Damascus, Syrian state television reported.

Asked about the incursion into Lebanon, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said the US "would like" to see a ceasefire, but affirmed the US commitment to Israel.
"We've been very clear that the security of Israel-- when it comes to security, our support is iron clad. That has not changed," she said.
