Hezbollah claims responsibility for rocket fire at north, says attacks were in response to Israeli strikes
Lebanon’s Hezbollah claims responsibility for the launch of rockets at northern Israel in its first attacks against the country since the United States reached a two-week ceasefire agreement with the Lebanese terror group’s patron Iran.
Hezbollah says in a statement that the attacks — including one that set off sirens overnight — came in response to what it described as Israeli ceasefire violations, after Israel launched its biggest attack on Lebanon in this war on Wednesday.
