Hezbollah rocket attack on Israel draws retaliation
Lebanon's Hezbollah fired more than 10 rockets into Israel Friday, prompting retaliatory shelling, in a major escalation between the Iran-backed Shiite movement and Jewish state. A flareup along the border this week has seen Israel carry out its first air strikes on Lebanese territory in seven years and Hezbollah claim a direct rocket attack on Israeli territory for the first time since 2019. Hezbollah said the attack came in response to Israeli air strikes on south Lebanon Thursday which where the first since 2014.
