The operation took place late Thursday night and consisted of over 2 hours of Israeli jets dropping precision ordnance on confirmed Hezbollah rocket launch positions.
IDF spokesman announced that it had destroyed hundreds of rocket launchers aimed at Israel, and no casualties were reported.
Lebanese security officials confirmed this was the heaviest attack since the conflict began last October.
The airstrike follows the apparent Mossad operation in which 3,000 Hezbollah members were wounded and 37 were killed when their pagers exploded on their hips Tuesday.
