Israeli Strike on South Lebanon, Hezbollah Targets Military Base
The Al Jazeera correspondent reported that the Israeli occupation forces bombed several towns in South Lebanon today, Tuesday. At the same time, warning sirens sounded in Israeli areas after rockets were launched from Lebanon.
The correspondent explained that Israeli aircraft and artillery bombed the towns of Markeb, Hula, Meis Al-Jabal, Blida, and Marwahin in southern Lebanon.
In response, alarm sirens blared in Margaliot in the area of Upper Galilee, and in several settlements in the area of Ras Al-Naqoura in Western Galilee on the Lebanese border.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese Hezbollah party stated that its fighters targeted the Israeli Ramim military barracks today, Tuesday, with volcanic rockets, causing direct hits. The party also announced targeting a concentration of Israeli soldiers in the vicinity of the Jil Al-Amlam site with the “Falaq-1” rocket, resulting in direct hits.
During the first three months of the confrontation between the two parties, Hezbollah claims to have executed nearly 700 strikes against Israeli targets, including 48 military sites and points and targeting 17 settlements on the border, which extend 140 kilometers from Ras Al-Naqoura in the west to the occupied Syrian Golan in the east.
On the other hand, the spokesman for the Israeli army, Daniyal Hagary, stated last Saturday that his forces attacked more than 50 targets affiliated with Hezbollah in Syria and 3,400 targets in Lebanon since the start of the war in the Gaza Strip. Hagary also mentioned the destruction of 150 cells affiliated with Hezbollah in Lebanon.
The towns in southern Lebanon are subjected to daily Israeli airstrikes and shelling with white phosphorus shells.
Since the start of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, the border between Lebanon and Israel has witnessed severe tension and exchanges of gunfire between Hezbollah and Palestinian factions in Lebanon on one hand, and the Israeli occupation forces on the other, resulting in casualties on both sides.
