UPDATES WITH HEZBOLLAH'S TARGETING OF 3 ISRAELI SITES
By Waseem Saif Al-Din
BEIRUT (AA) - Hezbollah announced on Thursday that it targeted two Israeli sites near the Lebanon-Israel border.
The Lebanese group said in a statement that it targeted the Marj and Harej Rameem Israeli sites (in the occupied Lebanese village of Hunin) “with appropriate weapons.”
Hezbollah also targeted the Israeli site Ma'ayan Baruch with "appropriate weapons," achieving direct hits, the statement added.
Israeli jet fighters targeted the vicinity of the Cooperative of Carpets building in the town of Kounine in southern Lebanon, causing damage to the building, the Lebanese National News Agency (NNA) said.
Israeli shelling on Hamams Hill injured a Lebanese person who was transferred to the government hospital in Marjayoun, the agency added describing his condition as "stable."
Israeli artillery shelling also targeted the outskirts of the towns of Houla, Markaba, and Wadi al-Salouqi in southern Lebanon, according to the agency.
The towns of Alma al-Shaab, Tyre Harfa, and Dahirah in the western part of the border were also targeted by Israeli artillery shelling, but no damage was reported, the agency added.
Tensions have flared along the border between Lebanon and Israel amid intermittent exchange of fire between Israeli forces and Hezbollah in the deadliest clashes since the two sides fought a full-scale war in 2006.
The border tensions came amid an Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip in response to a cross-border attack by Hamas on Oct. 7.
