Hezbollah targets Yodfat near Akka as Israel pounds south Lebanon
Hezbollah targeted Monday a military industrial company in Yodfat in northern Israel, southeast of Akka, with a suicide drone, in tribute to slain Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.
Hezbollah later fired a barrage of advanced rockets towards a naval base in the area of Haifa, with the Israeli military saying Hezbollah launched more than 100 projectiles into Israel on Monday.
The Lebanese group also targeted Kiryat Shmona with a salvo of rockets as Israel pounded south Lebanon.
The Israeli army struck towns and villages in thew south including Batoulay, Beit Leef, al-Henniyyeh, Byout al-Siyyad, al-Shaaytiyeh, Borj Qalaway, al-Khiam, Loueizeh, Sarafand, Rihan, Ramadieh, Borghlieh, Qlayleh, al-Ayshiyeh, Arab Salim, al-Hallousiyeh, Maaroub, Deir Qanoun al-Nahr, and Kfarhouna.
In the city of Tyre, an Israeli strike killed at least seven people and wounded 10 others.
Hezbollah said it launched "a rocket barrage at...a naval base" in the Haifa area, after the strikes on Tyre.
Israeli soldiers also dynamited buildings in the border towns of Yarin, Marwahin, Dhayra and Em el-Tout.
On Saturday, strong explosions caused by the Israeli army in southern border villages triggered earthquake warnings in large parts of Israel.
Meanwhile near Beirut, a drone targeting a car on the Araya main road in Baabda missed its target, causing no casualties.
