Beirut, November 26 (RHC)-- Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah has carried out new large-scale missile and drone strikes against Israel, targeting its positions deep inside the occupied territories.
In one of the operations on Sunday night, Hezbollah targeted the Haifa Navel Base with a barrage of missiles. Several other Israeli bases including Mishar, Shraga and Doviv were also hit.
The group destroyed at least six Israeli Merkava tanks on various fronts including Deir Mimas and Bayyada. The resistance movement carried out attacks, targeting nearly a dozen Israeli settlements including Yir’on, Kfar Blum and Sasa. Several gatherings of Israeli forces were also targeted.
Earlier on Sunday, Hezbollah fired hundreds of rockets at targets across the northern occupied territories including in Tel Aviv. The attacks forced millions of Israeli settlers to take shelter.
Israeli media have described the attacks as unprecedented since last October. According to Hebrew-language media, at least 10 Israelis were injured in Petah Tikva, east of Tel Aviv, as well as Haifa and Nahariya after rockets hit these areas.
Israeli media also reported that explosions were heard in central Tel Aviv due to the landing of rockets fired from Lebanon.
Israel has been targeting Lebanon since October 2023, when it launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
Hezbollah has been responding to the aggression with numerous retaliatory operations, targeting the occupied Palestinian territories.
Since late September, Israel has escalated its strikes against Hezbollah, assassinating its leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and a number of its senior figures.
At least 3,600 people have been killed by Israeli fire, and 15,400 others wounded since the clashes began last year, according to the health ministry.
The Lebanese resistance movement has vowed to keep up its operations against Israel as long as the Israeli regime continues its Gaza war, which has so far killed at least 44,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
