The Lebanese Hezbollah group announced on Sunday that it had attacked several Israeli military bases, including the Zarit barracks, with artillery shells.

The group said its operations were a direct response to Israeli army attacks on civilian areas in Lebanon and the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip.

Hezbollah’s attacks included drone strikes on the settlement of Hanita. The group said the drones hit their targets and Israeli soldiers were killed or wounded.

Videos of the Hezbollah attacks were widely circulated in Israeli media and social networks, showing the consequences of the Lebanese movement’s attacks on various areas in the Galilee region.

Shortly after Israel’s war on Gaza, Hezbollah announced that it would attack Israeli positions in occupied southern Lebanon and northern Israel until Tel Aviv ended its genocide against the Palestinians.

Below you will find the latest statements from the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah.

The statements were communicated via the broadcaster’s Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
