Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah have struck Israeli military positions close to the border between Lebanon and the 1948 occupied territories with artillery, rockets.
Lebanon’s Arabic-language al-Manar television channel, citing a Hezbollah statement released on Saturday, reported that the group launched projectiles at a command center belonging to the Israeli army at Biranit barracks in northern Israel, causing casualties in the targeted area, reports Press TV.
Hezbollah fighters also struck positions in the Khirbat Maer Israeli post near the border. The Israeli army later stated that shells were fired at the Shomera area in northern Israel, and that it responded with artillery fire.
Israeli shelling, meanwhile, targeted the outskirts of the southern Lebanese border towns of Tayr Harfa, Naqoura, Maroun al-Ras, Yaroun, Blida, Alma al-Shaab and al-Qawzah.
The artillery and rocket strikes were conducted as Israel keeps bombing the besieged Gaza Strip after a seven-day truce with the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas ended.
Meanwhile, Israel has killed two military advisors of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) in an attack in Syria.
In a statement on Saturday, the IRGC said two of its members, Mohammad Ali Ataee Shoorcheh and Panah Taqizadeh, were martyred by the Zionist regime while on an advisory mission.
It said the two IRGC officers were martyred against the backdrop of the relentless savagery of the “fake and child-killing” Israeli regime in Gaza Strip.
