Hezbollah takes responsibility for this evening’s rocket fire on the Western Galilee, its first attack in over 48 hours, since the killing of the terror group’s military chief in Beirut.
In a statement, Hezbollah claims to have launched dozens of rockets at the northern border community of Metzuba in response to an Israeli strike in the Lebanese village of Chamaa earlier today.
There were no reports of injuries in the rocket barrage on the Western Galilee.
The strike in Chamaa reportedly killed four Syrians and wounded several Lebanese civilians.
