Hezbollah Launches Dozens of Rockets After Two of Its Members Are Killed



Lebanese Hezbollah announced on Monday that it had bombed an Israeli military site with missiles, while Tel Aviv spoke of intercepting a drone launched from Lebanon, amid expectations of a round of escalation that would last for several days after a rocket fell on Majdal Shams.

The party said in a statement that its members bombed the Israeli military site of al-Baghdadi with dozens of Katyusha rockets.

It added that the bombing came "in support of our steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip (..) and in response to the attack and assassination carried out by the Israeli enemy in the town of Shaqra (south)."

Earlier on Monday, the Lebanese National News Agency reported that an Israeli drone targeted a car and a motorcycle on the Mays al-Jabal-Shaqra road, killing two people and wounding three, including a child.

Hezbollah announced that the two dead were its members, raising the death toll in confrontations with the Israeli army to 386 since October 8.

Israeli fighter jets and drones launched raids on the towns of Houla, "Rub 30", Yaroun, Markaba and Khiyam, and the surroundings of the towns of Mays al-Jabal, Markaba, Shebaa and Kfar Shuba were subjected to Israeli artillery shelling.

In contrast, the Israeli army said via the "X" platform that air defense fighters intercepted a drone that crossed from Lebanon into the Western Galilee region.
