Hezbollah and Israel exchange bombing of military sites

In recent hours, the Israeli army launched several raids on areas in southern Lebanon, while Hezbollah continued to bomb Israeli military sites adjacent to the border.


The Israeli military spokesman said that the army bombed "targets" belonging to Hezbollah, including weapons depots and missile launch pads.


Yesterday evening, Tuesday, the Israeli army launched a series of air strikes on several towns and regions in southern Lebanon.


The official Lebanese Information Agency said, "The enemy warplanes launched two raids on the outskirts of the towns of Yater and Kafra in the Bint Jbeil district."


Anadolu Agency reported that one of the raids in the town of Yater hit a 3-storey house, causing major material damage, but no information was received about any casualties.


Israeli aircraft also launched raids targeting the vicinity of the border towns of Naqoura, Alma al-Shaab, and Jabal al-Labouneh in the South Governorate, according to the Lebanese agency.


The same source reported that bombing targeted the Marjayoun Plain and the forests of the town of Shebaa in Nabatieh Governorate (south), without information being received about any casualties.


On Tuesday afternoon, Israeli warplanes flew over the airspace of the capital, Beirut, and its suburbs, according to what the official Lebanese National News Agency announced.


Hezbollah fire

For its part, Hezbollah announced that its fighters targeted Israeli artillery positions in occupied Palestine, in response to the bombing by Israeli forces of one of the resistance points in the Al-Tuffah region in southern Lebanon.


Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that "Hezbollah fighters targeted the Israeli site of Barkat Risha, off the southern border of Lebanon." The Israeli military spokesman said that "20 rocket shells fired from Lebanon towards the Israeli side of the border were repelled."


Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that "six rockets were intercepted in the occupied Syrian Golan area."


Since the eighth of last October, Israel, on the one hand, and Hezbollah and Palestinian factions in Lebanon, on the other hand, have exchanged intermittent bombardments, leaving dead and wounded on both sides of the border. These confrontations come in the wake of the continued Israeli aggression on Gaza, which led to the death of more than 10 people. Thousands of martyrs and 26 thousand wounded.
