Hezbollah's Secretary General says the Lebanese resistance movement successfully carried out its operation to avenge the Israeli assassination of its senior commander Fuad Shukr.
Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said Hezbollah launched some 340 katyusha missiles to assist the drones reach their targets through the iron dome. The Hezbollah leader added that Israel tried to change the narrative and carried out what it called a pre-emptive attack on southern Lebanon. Nasrallah said that those attacks did not thwart hezbollah’s strikes and were a failure for the Israeli army. Early on Sunday, Hezbollah launched its large-scale attack against Israel. The regime has confirmed one soldier was killed and two others injured in a naval boat which was hit by Hezbollah. Israel has also declared a 48-hour state of emergency, as authorities ordered all universities and beaches in the port city of Haifa to be closed until further notice. Dozens of flights have also been suspended.
