Northern Israel: 14 wounded in Hezbollah attack
The terror group said it was a response to Israeli airstrikes killing three of its members in southern Lebanon on Tuesday.
14 people were wounded in a drone attack in northern Israel on Wednesday, four of whom were in serious condition.
According to the IDF, a “number of launches from Lebanon were identified crossing into the area of Arab al-Aramshe in northern Israel. The IDF struck the sources of the fire.”
Shortly after, IDF fighter jets struck a Hezbollah military compound in the area of Ayta ash Shab in southern Lebanon “where terrorists were operating.”
Magen David Adam said its paramedics along with IDF medical teams treated and evacuated 14 casualties, males in their 30s, including 4 seriously injured, 1 in moderate and 8 in mild condition.
