Sources confirm overnight strike blew up Hezbollah missile shipment
A Lebanese security source says an alleged Israeli airstrike hit a truck loaded with Hezbollah missiles deep inside Lebanon overnight.
“The Israeli air force targeted two Hezbollah” trucks some 10 kilometers (six miles) from Baalbek, a stronghold of the Iran-backed group in eastern Lebanon, the Lebanese security source says. “One of the vehicles was hit and a series of explosions were heard in the area.”
One person was wounded in the strike, the health ministry in Lebanon said.
A source close to Hezbollah confirms the hit: “The munitions which were inside the truck caught fire.”
