Bekaa Valley Power Station Hit

Arutz Shiva is reporting that a power station in the Southern Bekaa was hit today.

The IAF also attacked a power station in the southern Bekaa Valley, causing a blackout in the area of Kiraoun.

This is a target I would expect if Israel had intentions of taking the Bekaa. The Israeli public knows the Bekaa is the key to Hizbollah resupply and reserves, so they are definitely in favor of such a move. The people of Israel are united in a way that hasn't been seen for a few decades.

You might want to go here to get some maps. Winds of Change also has a nice topo/road map of Northern Israel/Southern Lebanon as part of this piece.
