Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has fired scores of rockets at Israeli targets in the northern part of the occupied Palestinian territories, following airstrikes by the Tel Aviv regime targeting a strategic region in the country.

In a statement, Hezbollah said its fighters attacked “the Israeli air and missile command center in the Keila barracks” with more than 100 rockets, along with “the missile and artillery base in Yoav” and nearby artillery centers, according to Press TV. 

The resistance movement said the reprisal attack was conducted “in support of the steadfast Palestinian nation in the Gaza Strip” and “in response to the Israeli attacks on our people, villages and cities, including the most recent one in the vicinity of the city of Baalbek” that killed one person and injured several others.

The regime’s military confirmed that some 100 rockets were fired in two different barrages on Tuesday morning, claiming that some of them were intercepted.
