The IDF acknowledges a missile fired from Lebanon struck the sensitive Mount Meron air traffic control base in northern Israel this afternoon.
Hezbollah had claimed to have caused damage to the base after firing anti-tank missiles at it.
The IDF confirms a missile hit the base, but says “there is no damage to the site’s capabilities.”
The IDF adds that it is currently striking Hezbollah sites in Lebanon in response to the missile attack and the barrage of 20 rockets on the Western Galilee.
