The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) did not provide specific details about the attack while Lebanese media reported airstrikes on buildings. Villages in the south of the country include Adchit Sawwaneh and Shihabiyeh.
According to doctors, the airstrike took place a few hours after fire from Lebanon injured many people in northern Israel. Israel’s Magen David Adom emergency medical services organization said seven people were injured, five of them in the town of Safed.
The AFP reporter said he saw saw doctors and troops evacuate an injured person by helicopter military from Ziv hospital in Safed.
The militant group Hezbollah has not yet claimed responsibility for the missile launches fire from Lebanon into Israel. This is a force that has clashed almost daily with the Israeli army since the war in Gaza broke out more than 4 months ago.
Hezbollah head Hassan Nasrallah said on February 13 that the firepower from southern Lebanon – Hezbollah’s main area of operations – will end “when the attack on Gaza stops and there is a ceasefire” between Hamas and Israel.
“If Israel expands the conflict “We will also make similar moves,” Mr. Nasrallah warned in a televised speech.
The risk of another full-blown conflict between Israel and Hezbollah is growing. Every day, it threatens to force tens of thousands of people on both sides of the border to leave their homes.
“I don’t know when the war in the north will take place, but I can tell you that The likelihood of it happening in the coming months is much higher than before,” Israeli Commander Herzi Halevi said last month.
According to AFP‘s statistics since When the Hamas – Israel war broke out on October 7, 2023, at least 243 people were killed in Lebanon, most of them Hezbollah fighters but also 30 civilians.
According to official figures In Israel, 9 soldiers and 6 civilians were killed.
