Hezbollah Fires Over 320 Rockets at 11 Targets in Northern Israel
The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah announced early Sunday that it had launched an attack on Israel with a large number of drones in retaliation for the killing of one of its commanders in Beirut.
In a statement, Hezbollah has said that over 320 Katyusha rockets have been fired at 11 military bases and barracks of Israel which include the Meron Base and four sites in Golan Heights.
Hezbollah said the attack was targeting a qualitative Israeli military target that will be announced later as well as targeting a number of enemy sites and barracks and Iron Dome platforms.
Why Is Hezbollah Attacking Israel?
It said the strikes were an initial response to the killing of Fouad Shukur, a top commander with the group, in a strike in Beirut’s southern suburbs last month.
The Israeli military earlier announces its own strikes on Hezbollah sites in Lebanon, saying the militant group was preparing an attack on Israel.
