On March 16, Hezbollah attacked five different sites of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) located right on the border with Lebanon.
In four separate statements, Hezbollah said its fighters shelled the sites of al-Baghdadi, al-Malikiyah, al-Ramtha and al-Samaqa with rockets and mortars. In another statement, the group announced an attack on Ramim Barracks with two Burkan improvised heavy rockets.
The attacks were carried out “to support the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and in support of their brave and honorable resistance,” Hezbollah noted in its statements.
Hebrew media didn’t report any casualties. Meanwhile, the IDF said that it responded to recent attacks by targeting a building used by Hezbollah in the town of Tayr Harfa and another infrastructure used by the group in the town of Labbouneh in southern Lebanon.
Lebanese media didn’t report any civilian casualties as a result of recent Israeli strikes. Hezbollah also didn’t report any losses.
The clashes on the Lebanese-Israeli border first broke out after the start of the war in Gaza, with Hezbollah and its allies carrying out attacks in support of the Strip.
So far, the border clashes have resulted in seven civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of at least ten IDF soldiers and reservists. On the Lebanese side, more than 300 people have been killed, including 228 fighters of Hezbollah and at least 50 civilians.
