"A video has gone viral showing Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) using a medieval trebuchet to launch fireballs at Hezbollah positions along the Lebanon border.

"In 2024, the IDF used a trebuchet to hurl flaming projectiles into Lebanon. The goal was to burn down the thicket that grew alongside the border wall between Israel and Lebanon, so it couldn't be used as cover by Hezbollah troops"
