Hezbollah fires rockets at Golan in response to Iqlim al-Tuffah strike

Hezbollah said Tuesday that it fired rockets at Israel's artillery positions in the occupied Golan Heights in response to an overnight Israeli strike on a Hezbollah post on the outskirts of the town of Aramta in the Iqlim al-Tuffah region.

Aramta lies about 20 kilometers north of the border and is a Hezbollah stronghold. The strike was one of the deepest inside Lebanon since the fighting along the border erupted on October 8.

In retaliation to Tuesday's attack, Israel carried out a drone strike near a Lebanese Army post in Naqoura and fired artillery shells at the al-Labbouneh forests south of Naqoura, at the outskirts of Deir Mimas and at an open area between al-Ahmadiyeh and al-Dallafeh.
