Hezbollah says its fighters engaged in clashes with Israeli troops in Lebanon
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleHezbollah says its fighters are engaged in “direct” clashes with Israeli forces in the southern Lebanese town of Khiam, located about six kilometers from the border.
This is the first claim of a direct confrontation between the two sides since the Iran-backed terror group joined the war on Monday.
Hezbollah says in a statement that “after monitoring the movements of an Israeli enemy army force that tried to advance” inside the town of Khiam, “the fighters of the Islamic resistance detonated an explosive device and engaged in direct clashes with the force.”
