Jerusalem, Oct 7 (IANS) Hezbollah attacked an Israeli military base near the northern city of Haifa Sunday night, causing casualties, the group said in a statement.
“In response to the targeting of civilians and the massacres committed by the Zionist enemy, the Islamic Resistance launched on Sunday evening a salvo of ‘Fadi 1’ missiles at the Carmel base south of Haifa,” said the statement.
“The Islamic Resistance will remain ready to defend Lebanon and its proud, oppressed people and will not hesitate to do its duty to deter the enemy from its arrogance and aggression,” it added.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military said that following the sirens that sounded late Sunday in the upper Galilee area, approximately 15 projectiles were identified crossing from Lebanon. Some of the projectiles were intercepted and others were identified as falling in the area, Xinhua news agency reported.
