Hezbollah launches attacks on Israeli military positions in solidarity with Palestine, Lebanon
Fighters from the Hezbollah resistance movement have carried out multiple attacks on Israeli military positions in the occupied territories, in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the Lebanese nation amid ongoing Israeli offensives across the coastal sliver and Lebanon.
Hezbollah announced in a brief statement that its fighters bombed two positions at the Nirit area in the suburbs of Tel Aviv with a salvo of guided missiles on Tuesday morning.
Shortly afterwards, the group said a barrage of missiles targeted the Stella Maris naval base northwest of Haifa, and the projectiles precisely struck the designated sites.
Hezbollah said that the operation was conducted in support of Palestinians in Gaza as well as brave and honorable resistance groups there, in defense of Lebanon and its nation, and as retaliation for Israeli acts of aggression and massacre.
Separately, several explosions were reported across the Israeli-occupied lands, and the impacts were recorded in Caesarea resort town as well as the town of Zikhron Ya’akov, located 35 kilometers (22 miles) south of Haifa.
Hezbollah resistance fighters also fired rockets at Israeli positions in Ma’agan Michael kibbutz and south of Haifa.
Earlier, Hezbollah claimed responsibility for an attack on the Glilot military base near Tel Aviv with a missile salvo.
Alerts sounded in the Samaria area and in Modi’in Illit, the Israeli military said in a statement.
Air traffic has been completely stopped at the Ben Gurion airport, according to the Israeli media.
And Israeli authorities have declared a state of emergency in the Tel Aviv area.
This comes as at least 32 people are now confirmed injured as a result of an Israeli strike near Beirut’s Rafik Hariri Hospital, while at least four people – including a child – have been killed.
Paramedics are still digging through rubble after the Israeli military carried out about 15 strikes in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital on Monday night.
As many as 2,483 Lebanese people have been killed and 11,628 others wounded as a result of the regime’s intensified attacks against the country.
