At least 45 people, including women and children, were killed, along with 16 Hezbollah militants, including the Radwan force leader Ibrahim Aqil and senior commander Ahmad Wehbe.
Weakened militarily and stripped of its cloak of secrecy, Hezbollah has arrived at the most delicate phase of its decades-long fight against Israel.
The Israeli military did not respond to questions about whether the site was impacted but officials confirmed direct hits nearby.
This was one of the deepest hits by Hezbollah since the last all-out war between Lebanon and Israel in 2006.
What is certain is that there are new unwritten rules of engagement between Hezbollah and Israel.
