Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee wrote on his “X” account:
“The 98th Division has completed the encirclement of the town of Bint Jbeil and has begun an assault on it.
Forces from the Paratroopers Brigade, the Commando Brigade, and the Givati Brigade, under the command of the 98th Division, continue expanding focused ground operations to strengthen the forward defensive line in southern Lebanon.
Over the past week, the forces completed the encirclement of Bint Jbeil and began an assault, during which they eliminated more than 100 Hezbollah ‘terror operatives’ in close-quarters combat and from the air. They also destroyed dozens of militant infrastructures and located hundreds of weapons in the area.
The Israel Defense Forces will continue to operate forcefully against Hezbollah and will not allow harm to the citizens of the State of Israel.”
He also shared a video he said shows the encirclement operation.
