Hezbollah launches drone attack on Israeli military barracks in Syria’s Golan Heights
BEIRUT (AA) – Lebanese group Hezbollah said Monday that it had attacked with drones an Israeli military barracks in Syria’s occupied Golan Heights.
The group said that four drones struck the Kilaa barracks, 15 kilometers from the Lebanese border.
Hezbollah said its fighters also targeted the Jall Al-Alam site near the Lebanese border with “appropriate weapons,” resulting in direct hits.
There was no comment from the Israeli military on the claim.
Separately, Hezbollah said one of its fighters was killed in a clash with Israeli forces.
In another development, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported Israeli artillery shelling and airstrikes in the border towns of El-Hamames and Jibbain.
There were no reports yet of casualties or damage.
Tension has flared along the border between Lebanon and Israel amid intermittent exchanges of weapons fire between Israeli forces and Hezbollah, in the deadliest clashes since the two sides fought a full-scale war in 2006.
The escalation comes amid an Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 31,000 victims following a Hamas attack on Oct. 7, 2023.
At least 300 people are estimated to have been killed in Lebanon, including 240 Hezbollah fighters, since the clashes erupted last October. Nearly 20 Israelis have been killed, according to Israeli figures.
