The Israeli military intercepted two drones that were launched from the east and crossed into Israel's waters in the area of Eilat, the army said in a statement on Wednesday.

The “Islamic Resistance in Iraq” said in two statements that it attacked Israel's port city of Eilat with drones twice on Wednesday.

The pro-Iranian militant group added that it struck “vital” targets there.

The Israeli army carried out airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs, called Dahiyeh, again on Saturday.

It warned residents in parts of the suburbs that they were residing near Hezbollah facilities, which the army would target in the near future.

The warning, posted on X, told people to evacuate at least 500 meters away.

The army said that over the past day it had conducted intelligence-based strikes on Hezbollah targets in Dahiyeh, where Hezbollah has a strong presence. It said it hit several command centers and weapons storage facilities.
