Lebanese group Hezbollah said yesterday two of its fighters were killed and claimed attacks on northern Israel, including with drones, the latest cross-border violence amid fears of full-blown war.
The powerful Iran-backed group has exchanged regular cross-border fire with Israeli army in support of ally Hamas since the Israeli offensive in Gaza began on October 7.
Hezbollah said two of its fighters were “martyred on the road to Jerusalem”, the phrase it has used to refer to members killed by Israeli fire since October.
The Israeli military said air forces struck “Hezbollah terrorists” in the Hula area and “Hezbollah military structures” elsewhere in south Lebanon.
Lebanon media reported Israeli shelling and raids on several southern areas.
