Group claims strikes on Tel Nof airbase and multiple sites in northern Israel

Hezbollah announced Saturday that it had launched attacks on military bases and settlements in northern and central Israel.

In central Israel, Hezbollah claimed it targeted the Tel Nof airbase, located south of Tel Aviv, using a “swarm of suicide drones,” according to a statement on the group's Telegram channel.

In northern Israel, Hezbollah reported rocket salvos aimed at military bases, including Mishar, Elite, and Sharaga, as well as the barracks of Snir and Ma'ale Gilboa, and military sites at Haboushit and Jal al-'Alam.

The group also stated that six Israeli settlements—Yasud HaMa'ala, Ga'aton, Matzuva, She'ar Yashuv, Kiryat Shmona, and Karyot—came under rocket fire. Additionally, Hezbollah said it shelled a group of Israeli soldiers in the settlement of Shlomi.

Meanwhile, in southern Lebanon, Hezbollah reported it had launched two rocket salvos at Israeli troops near the towns of Aita al-Shaab, Ras al-Naqoura, and Markaba.

Israel has mounted a huge air campaign in Lebanon since last month against what it claims are Hezbollah targets, in an escalation from a year of cross-border warfare between Israel and Hezbollah since the start of Israel's brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip.

Israel expanded the conflict on Oct. 1 by launching an incursion into southern Lebanon.
