Hezbollah announced it had launched dozens of rockets towards the north of Israel in retaliation for the deaths of two civilians in southern Lebanon in an attack blamed on Tel Aviv. Fighters from the Lebanese Islamist movement fired dozens of Katyusha rockets”in response to the Israeli enemy’s attacks on civilian homes, especially the Hanine massacre and the deaths of civilians“, the group said in a statement. The raid targeted the settlement of Margaliotlocated along the border with Lebanon inUpper Galileeincluding a building where Israeli soldiers are stationed in the settlement of Al-Manara.
Hezbollah’s attack
High tension, therefore, between Israel and Hezbollah. The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon announced in a statement that the attack occurred “to supportor” of “Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and their courageous and honorable resistance, and in the framework of the response to the Israeli enemy’s attacks on Southern villages and civilian homes, in particular the horrific Hanin massacre and the fall of martyrs and civilians wounded“.
In the afternoon Hezbollah announced that it had launched an attack against an Israeli base near the city of Acre, considerably further south than areas usually targeted, in response to an Israeli air strike that had killed one of its officials. The same group had then claimed that the assault launched was “in response to the Israeli aggression on the city of Adloun” and to “killing” by one of its officials, Hussein Ali Azqul. Specifically, Hezbollah’s blitz targeted a location about 15 kilometers from the border and was the deepest launched since the outbreak of the war. The Israeli army declared in a communicated that he had “successfully intercepted two suspicious air targets off the northern coast“.
Since last October 7, cross-border firefights have occurred almost daily between Hezbollah and the Israeli army. The Israeli attacks killed around 270 fighters from the Lebanese group and around 50 civilians. Hezbollah’s rocket and drone fire killed around a dozen Israeli soldiers and a handful of civilians. The bombing displaced tens of thousands of people on each side.

According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the air force also hit military facilities a Marakahagain in the south of the country.
“We appreciate every military and popular effort that went into the Al-Aqsa flood (the October 7 attack in Israel, ed.), and we especially mention the battlefronts in Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq and their proud sacrifices.
