Lebanese group, Hezbollah, on Monday said its fighters attacked several Israeli military positions in northern Israel, in response to Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon, Anadolu Agency reports.

In a statement, Hezbollah said its fighters targeted the Israeli army’s Jal Al-Alam site with two combat drones, and also struck the same site with artillery shells.

Separately, Hezbollah said it struck the army’s Al-Marj site with artillery shells, and targeted spy equipment in the army’s Ramtha site in the occupied Lebanese Kfar Shuba Hills.

In another statement, the Hezbollah group said its fighters struck with a barrage of Katyusha rockets the headquarters of the Israeli army’s Western Brigade Command near the Yaara barracks.

Earlier on Monday, the Lebanese Health Ministry said four people were wounded in an Israeli airstrike on the town of Hanine in southern Lebanon.

Tensions have spiked along Lebanon’s border with Israel amid cross-border attacks between Hezbollah and Israeli forces as Tel Aviv pressed ahead with a brutal onslaught on the Gaza Strip, which has killed nearly 41,000 people since 7 October following an attack by the Palestinian Resistance group, Hamas.
