Hezbollah fires missiles at Israel, IDF responds with artillery, air force
The IDF stated that air force jets struck targets in the area of the Lebanese towns of Labbouneh, Ramyeh, and Ayta ash Shab, destroying several Hezbollah infrastructure facilities.
After two anti-tank missiles were fired from Lebanon at northern Israel on Friday, the IDF responded with artillery fire directed at the sources of the missile launches, Israeli media reported.
The anti-tank missiles were reportedly fired at the area of Malkiya in the Upper Galilee. A rocket alarm sounded in Hanita, an Israeli community directly adjacent to the Lebanon border.
The Lebanon-based, Iranian-backed terror organization Hezbollah subsequently claimed responsibility for the attack on Telegram, naming Hanita as one of several Israeli targets under fire.
Shortly thereafter, the Israeli media outlet Walla, reported that Israeli air force aircraft struck targets in southern Lebanon.
