BEIRUT: Lebanese media reported that Israeli jets carried out an airstrike in an eastern Lebanese border area Tuesday, which was later denied by Hezbollah's TV channel and security sources.
Local media channels reported that an Israeli raid targeted a Hezbollah outpost on the outskirts of the Bekaa Valley town of Brital.
However, a security source denied that any raid occured, saying Israeli jets only hovered over the area without bombing any targets.
Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV also denied that an Israeli raid targeted any of its positions in the Bekaa or Syria's Qalamoun region.
Another source had told The Daily Star that the raid occurred on the high-altitude hills between the Lebanese villages of Ham and Maaraboun.
