Lebanon's Hezbollah Says It Fired 'Dozens' of Rockets at Northern Israeli Town
Tensions on the Israeli-Lebanese border have escalated since the start of Israeli military action in the Gaza Strip in October 2023.
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Hezbollah said it had fired dozens of rockets at the settlement of Beit Hillel in northern Israel Sunday.
"The Islamic Resistance [Hezbollah] included the new settlement of Beit Hillel in its shelling schedule and fired dozens of Katyusha rockets at it for the first time," the Lebanese group claimed in a statement.
Hezbollah said the attack had been carried out in response to IDF shelling of settlements in southern Lebanon.
