The Lebanese movement Hezbollah said on Friday that it has fired dozens of missiles at Israeli artillery positions.
“Al-Quds Brigades: Together with the forces of Omar al-Qassem, we carried out rocket strikes on Sderot and the settlements surrounding the Gaza Strip in response to the crimes of the Zionist enemy against our people,” the military wing of Islamic Jihad said in a statement on Telegram.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Friday about 40 launches were identified crossing from Lebanese territory, some of which were intercepted. No injuries were reported. The shelling occurred amid reports that Tehran could respond to Israel's recent air strike on Iran's consulate in Damascus that left several Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members killed.
