Hezbollah fires ‘dozens’ of rockets at Israel
Hezbollah says it has launched “dozens” of rockets from Lebanon, as fears grow that a full-scale war with Israel could soon break out following the assassination of Hamas’s political leader in Tehran.
The Iran-backed group said it was acting in response to Israel’s attacks on Kfar Kela and Deir Siriane in Lebanon which, it said, had injured civilians there.
It comes amid reports that 50 rockets have been fired from southern Lebanon towards upper Galilee alone, according to Israeli media.
Video footage revealed Israel’s Iron Dome defence system being activated and the Israel Defense Forces later confirmed “most” of approximately 30 “projectiles” fired on Saturday night had been intercepted. No one was injured, the IDF said.
The crisis in the Middle East has intensified following the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’s top leader, a day after an Israeli strike in Beirut killed senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr.
The escalating tensions have prompted Britain, the US and Australia to tell their citizens to evacuate Lebanon. Travellers are also being advised to avoid Israel.
