IDF says no damage or casualties after Lebanese militant group targets Safed base for first time
The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has launched explosive drones at a key Israeli command base, declaring the attack part of its response to recent high-level Israeli assassinations in Lebanon.
The group said it launched “a number of explosive attack drones” at the military headquarters in Safed, the first time it has targeted the site. An Israeli army spokesperson said there had been no damage or casualties.
A few hours before the Hezbollah attack, an Israeli drone strike hit a car in southern Lebanon, killing three people inside it, security officials in the area and the state news agency said. Sources did not immediately identify those killed.
Hezbollah cited the killing of the senior Hezbollah figure Wissam al-Tawil on Monday and the deputy chief of Hamas’s political bureau, Saleh al-Arouri, last week, in its statement about the strike.
