Hezbollah rains rockets on Israeli base near Tiberias after Kfar Rumman airstrike
Hezbollah said Saturday that it fired dozens of Katyusha rockets at an Israeli artillery and precision missile base in Yiftah Elifelet northwest of Lake Tiberias, deep in northern Israel.
It said the attack was a response to an overnight Israeli airstrike that wounded ten people in the Nabatieh district town of Kfar Rumman.
Hezbollah had earlier said that it fired Katyusha rockets at an Israeli base in Ami’ad near Safad in response to a deadly strike on the West Bekaa town of al-Ahmadiyeh.
The group also targeted a tank in the occupied Shebaa Farms in response to that attack.
An Israeli drone meanwhile targeted the southern border town of Mays al-Jabal after an overnight Israeli airstrike on the forest of the town of Kounine.
The Israeli army for its part said that it attacked rocket launchers that were used to target northern Israel overnight and on Saturday morning, describing the empty building targeted in Kfar Rumman as a “military building.” It also said that it fired artillery shells at several areas in south Lebanon.
