Hezbollah Launches Big Attack On Israel


(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Lebanon's Hezbollah launched a big rocket and drone attack at Israel yesterday and threatened to hit new targets in retaliation for the killing of a top commander, in the latest surge of violence in the steadily worsening conflict across the border.
Sparked by the Gaza war, the conflict between Iran-backed Hezbollah and Israel has been gradually intensifying for months, raising fears of a full-scale war, which both sides have indicated they want to avoid and diplomats are working to prevent.
Israeli jets broke the sound barrier over several areas of the country, Lebanon's National News Agency reported.
Hezbollah said it launched more than 200 rockets and a swarm of drones at 10 Israeli military sites in retaliation for Israel's killing of Hezbollah commander Mohamed Nasser in the south on Wednesday.
