Lebanon: Hezbollah fires dozens of rockets into Israel after strike kills its commander
Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement has fired multiple barrages of rockets into northern Israel in retaliation for an Israeli strike which killed one of its senior commanders.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reportedly identified more than 200 projectiles that crossed the border on Wednesday. Some triggered fires, but no casualties were reported.
It came as a top Hezbollah official vowed that the Iran-backed group would increase the intensity, force and quantity of its attacks.
He was speaking at the funeral of Taleb Sami Abdullah, the field commander targeted in a strike in southern Lebanon on Tuesday night.
