Israel has hit Hezbollah targets in eastern Lebanon for the first time since the start of the War on Gaza.

At least two simultaneous Israeli strikes hit around the city of Baalbek.

The Israeli army says the strikes were in retaliation for Hezbollah's downing of one of its armed drones in southern Lebanon.

Hezbollah responded by firing a barrage of rockets targeting Israeli military positions close to the border.
