Hezbollah claims to have hit Iron Dome battery; IDF says unaware of such case
Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent
Hezbollah is claiming to have hit an Iron Dome air defense system launcher near the northern community of Ramot Naftali yesterday.
The Lebanese terror group publishes a video apparently showing a guided missile striking the launcher.
The video does not show the aftermath of the strike.
The IDF says it is unaware of any damage to an Iron Dome launcher.
It appears Hezbollah did hit the Iron Dome launcher with a guided missile. This is the first time I've observed an Iron Dome launcher being hit. Separately, Palestinian terrorist groups have been trying to do this for years, but I've never seen evidence they were successful. https://t.co/6KB518OqJ4 pic.twitter.com/j6LZdJXK4W
