Hezbollah claims responsibility for the rocket barrage on northern Israel’s Mount Hermon this evening.

In a statement, the terror group says it targeted Israeli army bases in the area with dozens of Katyusha rockets.

Hezbollah says the attack is in response to the killing of two members of the allied al-Jama’a al-Islamiyya terror group in an IDF drone strike earlier today.

In a separate statement, al-Jama’a al-Islamiyya confirms the deaths of Mosab Khalaf and Bilal Khalaf, members of the group’s armed wing, the al-Fajr Forces.
