Why is Israel destroying so many buildings in these border villages? Random vengeance?
The truth is accidentally revealed by anti-Israel researcher Evan Hill: The blank patch (i.e., almost no buildings are damaged) between Ayta al-Shab and Yaroun is Rmaich. (1/4)

Despite the negligence of the Lebanese government and UNIFIL, the citizens of this Christian village fought all attempts to turn the bucolic mountain township into a terror base to destroy Israel. They bravely defied Hezbollah, unlike their neighbors. (2/4)
When a village adjacent to an international border is made into a swiss cheese of tunnels and dungeons filled with weapons—ready for an invasion at the beep of a pager—that infrastructure needs to be destroyed.
Its destruction is good, the tragedy is that it was built. (3/4)

The Lebanese border villages chose: Some allowed Hezbollah encroachment, became terror forts, and are getting wrecked. Some fought Hezbollah—they chose life. I hope Israel offers an olive branch and helps revive them.
The real culprits here are UNIFIL, the UN and Iran. (4/4)

Of course, this is a report for the Washington Post, so even though they evidence clearly shows that as Netanyahu claimed, Israel is attacking Hezbollah, not Lebanon, they quote "analysts" to say the opposite.
(And Hezbollah is merely "showing solidarity" with Hamas. And WaPo, by the way, the use of explosive weapons in empty urban areas, is the only way to remedy the storage of massive quantities of such weapons under inhabited civilians buildings.)

For the curious, here are 2 maps. The first shows the religious breakdown of the villages of S. Lebanon. When the outlines of the Christian villages are drawn on the damage map, the effect becomes obvious. They alone resisted Hezbollah. Sadly even the Sunnis seem to have failed.
Watch this clip from the Druze village of Hasbaya (about 10km from the border) as the locals catch a Hezbollah man ferrying weapons.
A mob attacks and evicts him & they share the video to deter more incursions.
They knew: Hezbollah today means death and destruction tomorrow.
