The latest barrage came in retaliation for the killing of the group’s commander Fouad Shukr last month
The Islamic paramilitary group Hezbollah has fired hundreds of rockets at Israel to avenge the death of its top commander, Fouad Shukr, who was killed in an airstrike on Beirut last month. Meanwhile, the Israeli military has said it carried out preemptive strikes against the Lebanon-based militia after concluding that the attack was imminent.
Hezbollah said it fired more than 320 rockets at 11 Israeli military sites in a statement issued early on Sunday, including those in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. It added that the attack came „within the framework of the first response to the brutal Zionist aggression on the southern suburbs of Beirut“, in which Shukr was killed.
