TEL AVIV, 22 July 2024 (TON): Lebanon’s Hezbollah group claimed that its fighters fired dozens of rockets into northern Israel, targeting a kibbutz in retaliation for an Israeli drone strike earlier in the day that wounded several people including children. Lebanon claimed that Hamas also fired rockets from Lebanon toward an Israeli army post in the northern Israeli village of Shomera. Hamas leadership has denied responsibility of any such attack from Lebanon.
National News Agency reported on Saturday night, an Israeli airstrike on the southern coastal village of Adloun hit an arms depot and it was followed by a series of explosions that hit nearby villages with shrapnel in which three people were wounded in the nearby village of Kharayeb and hospitalized. The explosions lasted more than an hour after the airstrike.
The Israeli military said that about 45 projectiles were fired from Lebanon into northern Israel in three separate series of attacks. It said that these fell in open areas, causing no injuries, but triggering several fires in the Golan Heights.
