Hezbollah attacks 3 Israeli military sites

Beirut: Hezbollah said that it attacked three Israeli military sites with suicide drones and artillery shells in support of the Palestinian people's resistance in the Gaza Strip.

In three separate statements, Hezbollah said, "Our fighters targeted Saturday the enemy's positions in Mount Hermon and its espionage equipment in Al-Raheb and Kiryat Shmona sites with suicide drones and artillery shells, hitting them directly."

Lebanese military sources told that Lebanese army sites monitored in the morning the launching of several drones, artillery shells, and rockets from southern Lebanon into northern Israel.

They added that an Israeli drone raided a house in the village of Aita al-Shaab in southern Lebanon, damaging it partially but causing no injuries.

The sources continued that seven border towns and villages in the eastern and central sectors of southern Lebanon were shelled, with material damage reported.

Tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border escalated on Oct. 8, 2023, following a barrage of rockets launched by the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah toward Israel in solidarity with Hamas' attack on Israel the day before. Israel then retaliated by firing heavy artillery toward southeastern Lebanon.

The situation escalated further after Israel's attack on Dahieh in Beirut's southern suburbs, killing Hezbollah's top military commander, Fouad Shokor, and seven civilians. Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah threatened a definite and painful response to the Israeli raid at the appropriate time and place.
