The Lebanese group Hezbollah announced on Sunday the targeting of several Israeli military bases, including the Zarit barracks with artillery shells.
The group said that its operations were a direct response to the Israeli army’s targeting of civilian areas in Lebanon and for the continued war on Gaza.
Hezbollah’s attacks included drone attacks in the settlement of Hanita. The group said that the drones hit their targets, leaving Israeli soldiers between dead and wounded.

Videos of the Hezbollah attacks were shared widely on Israeli media and social media as well, showing the outcome of the Lebanese movement’s strikes on various areas in the Galilee region.
Soon after the Israeli war on Gaza, Hezbollah has announced that it will target Israeli positions in occupied south Lebanon and northern Israel until Tel Aviv ends its genocide on the Palestinians.
Below are the latest statements by the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements were communicated via its Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
