Israel-Hezbollah border clashes: Latest developments

Hezbollah targeted Tuesday groups of soldiers in the Malkia post in northern Israel, while Israel shelled the outskirts of al-Naqoura in south Lebanon.

Earlier on Tuesday, Hezbollah warned that Israel will pay for killing high-level Iranian Revolutionary Guards in a strike on the country's consulate in Damascus, Syria, the day before. Later during the day, the group announced the death of one of its fighters "on the road to Jerusalem."

The strikes on the Iranian consulate in Damascus killed eight Iranians, two Syrians and one Lebanese.

Since the war erupted in October, Hezbollah has exchanged near-daily cross-border fire with Israel in support of Gaza.
