Hezbollah and Israeli military trade fire

The Israeli military has issued an operational update in which it says 40 rockets were launched from Lebanon towards the occupied Golan Heights.

For its part, Lebanese group Hezbollah said it “launched a missile attack with more than 60 Katyusha rockets” on several Israeli military positions.

The strikes were “in response to the Israeli enemy’s attacks last night on the Bekaa region” in eastern Lebanon’s Baalbek area, the group said in a statement.

Hezbollah and the Israeli military have regularly traded fire since the start of the war on Gaza.

The Israeli military said several of the rockets launched today were successfully intercepted by Israel’s air defence systems.

Additionally it said five rockets were launched towards Zarit in northern Israel from Lebanon.

The Israeli military reported no injuries and said it retaliated by targeting the source of the attacks.
