Ten wounded in two separate Hezbollah attacks on northern Israel

Ten people were wounded in northern Israel on Thursday in two separate attacks by Iran’s Lebanese terror proxy Hezbollah, according to Hebrew media reports.

In the morning, eight people were wounded when two anti-tank missiles fired from Lebanon struck the Ramim Ridge area of Israel’s Upper Galilee.

According to Channel 12, six of the victims were evacuated to Ziv Medical Center in Safed, while the remaining two were transported to Rambam Hospital in Haifa. Kan News reported that the two taken to Rambam were listed as being in moderate to serious condition.

Israeli troops reportedly responded with artillery fire at the launch site.

In the afternoon, two people were wounded by a drone strike near the town of Ya’ara in the Western Galilee.

The IDF said that “an explosive UAV was identified falling adjacent to the community of Ya’ara. No fragments were identified falling in the area of the community.”

The military also said that on Thursday afternoon a drone was detected crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory and impacting adjacent to Beit Hillel.

“Israel Fire and Rescue Services are currently operating to extinguish a fire that erupted as a result of the fragments. No injuries were reported. No fragments were identified falling inside the area of the community,” the IDF reported.

Hezbollah took responsibility for launching the drones, saying they were fired at artillery positions near Beit Hillel and that it was in revenge for IDF strikes in Southern Lebanon, in particular Kfarkela.

Channel 12 also published a video capturing a direct hit on a chicken coop in the moshav of Margaliot in the Upper Galilee.

IAF strikes Hezbollah sites

The Israeli Air Force overnight Wednesday struck Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure in seven areas of Southern Lebanon, the military said on Thursday morning.

Buildings used by the Iranian terrorist proxy were hit in the areas of Chihine, Taybeh, Blida, Meiss, El Jabal, Aitaroun and Kfarkela.

In addition, a Hezbollah weapons storage facility was struck in the area of Khiam.

“The IDF will continue to operate against the threat of the Hezbollah terrorist organization in order to defend the State of Israel,” the army said.
