Hezbollah in a statement denies it launched rockets at Majdal Shams, in an attack that killed and wounded civilians, including children.

The terror group says it “has no connection to the incident at all, and categorically denies all false allegations.”

Hezbollah said earlier it launched dozens of rockets at an army base in the Golan Heights, near Majdal Shams.

The IDF has assessed that Hezbollah was behind the rocket fire that struck the town and killed and wounded civilians.
