The Israel Defense Forces eliminated a Hezbollah terrorist in the Bint Jbeil area of southern Lebanon during evening hours on January 11, 2026, according to a statement posted by IDF Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee on X over the past hour. The terrorist was involved in rebuilding Hezbollah’s military infrastructure, violating understandings between Israel and Lebanon. Adraee stated the IDF conducted the attack after targeting other terrorist infrastructure in southern Lebanon, noting the eliminated individual was carrying out work to restore Hezbollah’s capabilities. The IDF affirmed it will continue operations to remove such threats and protect Israel. This strike follows IDF attacks earlier on January 11 in nearby areas, including Yater's Al-Kassar neighborhood where a car was targeted and a bomb thrown by a marcher landed on a house roof with no casualties, as reported by @kaisos1987 and bintjbeil.org. Previous operations targeted Hezbollah sites in Benat Jabal, including an underground weapons storage facility.
