The Israeli army said on Monday that its warplanes have bombed nearly ten Hezbollah targets in South Lebanon, according to the Arab Press Agency.
In a statement, the Israeli army said the targets included a weapons storage facility, missile launch sites, and infrastructure belonging to the group in the Rashaya al-Fukhar area in southern Lebanon.
On Sunday, the Israeli military said it killed a Hezbollah commander in an airstrike on a vehicle in Lebanon, identifying him as Ismail Al-Zin, a commander in the anti-tank missile unit of Hezbollah's Radwan Forces.
Hezbollah began launching rockets from hilltops and villages in southern Lebanon at Israel on Oct. 8 in support of its Palestinian ally Hamas, which carried out a cross-border attack into Israel the previous day that triggered a fierce Israeli land, air and sea offensive on the Gaza Strip.
Israel's shelling of Lebanon has killed nearly 270 Hezbollah fighters, but has also killed around 50 civilians - including children, medics and journalists - and hit both UNIFIL and the Lebanese army.
The US and other countries have sought to secure a diplomatic resolution to the exchanges of fire between Hezbollah and Israel. Hezbollah said it will not halt fire before a ceasefire is implemented in Gaza.

The Pentagon says US Central Command forces have killed two operatives for the ISIS militant group in an airstrike in Syria.
The US military said the airstrike Monday in Deir Ezzour Province was aimed at ISIS militants who were moving a truckload of weapons, which was destroyed. Another ISIS operative was wounded, The Associated Press said.
Central Command said the area was formerly controlled by former President Bashar Assad’s regime and its Russian supporters. Assad fled to Moscow after opposition forces seized control of Damascus earlier this month and ended his family’s 50 years of iron rule.
