The Ziv Medical Center in Safed says it has admitted 12 people who were wounded as a result of a Hezbollah anti-tank guided missile attack earlier near the northern community of Beit Hillel.

The hospital says 11 men and one woman, between the ages of 20 and 65, are all lightly hurt as a result of shrapnel and the missile’s blast.

The IDF had said only four soldiers were lightly hurt in the attack, and it was not clear if the other victims were soldiers or civilians.
