About the battle
The Battle of Bint Jbeil was a battle in the 2026 Lebanon war, within the context of the wider 2026 Iran war. The battle began on 9 April 2026, coinciding with the second day of the Iran war ceasefire, as part of a broader Israeli offensive against Hezbollah that included the 8 April 2026 Lebanon attacks and other operations across southern Lebanon. The timing of the offensive was disputed. Iran, Pakistan, and Hezbollah stated that the ceasefire extended to Lebanon and characterized Israeli operations as violations of the agreement. In contrast, Israel and the United States maintained that the ceasefire did not apply to the Lebanese front, and therefore considered continued military operations against Hezbollah to be legitimate.
The battle was one of the main battlegrounds in Southern Lebanon following the ceasefire. The battle was part of the wider "Operation Silver Plow" announced by Israel Katz.
