An IDF spokesman reveals the aftermath of a Hezbollah missile attack on a church near the Lebanon border earlier this week.

On Tuesday, Hezbollah fired a missile at the St. Mary’s Greek Orthodox Church in Iqrit, moderately wounding a civilian in his 80s who was near the building. The Iran-backed terror group then launched an anti-tank guided missile as the man was evacuated by Israeli troops, wounding nine of them.

In a video shared by Lt. Col. Richard Hecht, damage can be seen to a structure right outside the entrance to the church, along with debris on the ground.
