The Islamic group stated that, in response to the attack, it launched rockets at Israeli Army installations on the country’s northern border.
Hezbollah, an Islamic extremist group, said this Sunday (May 26, 2024) that 8 people were killed in villages in southern Lebanon after Israeli attacks in the region. The information is from Reuters.
The group stated that two people were killed in Ayta al-Shaab, another 3 in Houla, two more in Yaroun, as well as 1 driver whose motorcycle was attacked on a main road in Naqoura.
Hezbollah published that it was mourning the death of 4 of its fighters after the Israeli attacks and which responded by launching dozens of Katyusha rockets – using a multiple missile launcher built for the first time in the Soviet Union for the Second World War – against Israeli Army reserve units on Israel’s northern border.
Repeatedly, the extremist group claims that it will cease fire when Israel’s offensive in Gaza ends, but that it is also ready to continue fighting if attacks on Lebanon continue.
Although the war is between Israel and Hamas, Israeli forces and Hezbollah exchange attacks since the beginning of the conflict. The extremist group based in Lebanon celebrated Hamas’ action that resulted in the current conflict.
Tensions increased after the Saleh al-Arouri death. Hamas’s deputy political chief was assassinated during an Israeli attack in Beirut, in the capital of Lebanon, on January 2.
