Lebanon’s Hezbollah group said it attacked Israeli troops in northern Israel with drones, artillery and missiles this week, starting a new line of hits.
The Iran-backed movement said it had fired “Burkan missiles” at an Israeli barrack and targeted soldiers “with three attack drones.”
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that no injuries were reported in the attacks, adding that aerial defenses “intercepted a number of the launches and the rest fell in open areas.”
“Tanks, a fighter jet, and a helicopter struck Hezbollah terror infrastructure in Lebanon” in response to the launches towards Israel.
From Breitbart:
Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah said this month that his group, a Hamas ally, was using new weapons against Israel, including Burkan missiles, adding that they could carry “a payload of 300-500 kilogrammes” (660-1,100 pounds). The group has also been using attack drones for the first time and has flown reconnaissance drones deep into Israel, Nasrallah said.
