Lebanon’s Hezbollah announced five attacks targeting Israeli soldiers and military positions near the southern Lebanese border, following the Lebanese Civil Defense’s declaration that four people were “martyred” in an Israeli attack on a car in the southern district of Tire.
Hezbollah said its fighters targeted and destroyed a recently installed technical system in the Israeli military base of Ramiya with suitable weapons.
They targeted a group of Israeli occupation forces at al-Zarda military point, and killed or wounded its members, except for a new command center for the occupation in Nadawa settlement, which they directly injured.
Hezbollah fighters also targeted a crowd of Israeli occupation soldiers near the Jal al-Alam military base, as well as the occupation administration’s military command and its members in Kafr Giladi settlement and its surroundings, killing and injuring its members.
Deaths and Trials
The Israeli military confirmed that one of its soldiers was killed and another wounded in a shelling from Lebanon, bringing the number of military deaths to 3 in two days.
Earlier, four Hezbollah fighters were killed in an Israeli attack on a car in southern Lebanon, security sources told Reuters.
Lebanon’s General Directorate of Civil Defense said its rescue team recovered 4 bodies from a burnt-out car as a result of an Israeli attack.
Israeli warplanes carried out strikes near several border towns in southern Lebanon.
For its part, the Israeli occupation army said it detected several attacks coming from Lebanon.
Several strikes have resulted in fires in the town of Shlomi, near the border with northwestern Israel. The army added that there were no reports of injuries.
The military said it intercepted two drones inside Lebanese territory and carried out strikes in southern Lebanon, some of which targeted what it said was Hezbollah infrastructure.
Hot summer
On Wednesday, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant, in a televised address, warned of a hot summer with Hezbollah, deeming the Israeli army’s work on the northern border with Lebanon far from over.
Since last October 8, Hezbollah and Palestinian factions in Lebanon have exchanged relentless daily bombardments with the Israeli army along the Blue Line, killing and injuring hundreds, most of them in Lebanon.
The party and factions say they stand in solidarity with Gaza, exposed since October 7 in an Israeli war that has killed and injured more than 113,000 Palestinians, most of them children and women, and left 10,000 missing amid famine and mass destruction.
