Israel Pounds Lebanese Capital After Hezbollah Takes Credit for Rocket Fire at Haifa - News From Antiwar.com

Israel Defense Forces targeted Hezbollah weapons sites in Lebanon after rocket fire, with reported 10 Lebanese casualties and 8 Hezbollah members killed, amid broader Iran-related tensions.

  • Yesterday, the Israel Defense Forces launched new strikes in Lebanon after Hezbollah claimed rocket fire at Haifa, targeting Beirut's Dahiyeh and Hezbollah sites in Bekaa Valley and Nabatieh District.
  • Hezbollah said the rocket fire was vengeance for the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and a warning against Israel's troop presence since the November 2024 ceasefire.
  • Media and rescue reports said launches from Iran toward central and southern Israel triggered air-raid sirens, with Hezbollah confirming eight members lost in strikes.
  • Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir said the army `launched an offensive campaign against Hezbollah`, and the Home Front Command instructed northern communities into protected spaces, with Magen David Adom reporting no injuries.
  • The strikes follow the first Hezbollah cross-border rocket fire since the November 2024 ceasefire, increasing escalation risks amid recent months' actions, Israel said.
