TEHRAN- Lebanon’s Hezbollah has announced a series of drone and rocket attacks into the Israeli-occupied northern Galilee, with one drone strike hitting the Shraga military base north of Acre.

The Lebanese resistance has warned that its much-anticipated retaliation for the Israeli assassination of a top commander last week was yet to come.

In a statement published by Hezbollah, the attacks targeted the headquarters of the Golani Brigade and the Egoz 621 unit, resulting in confirmed casualties.

The operation comes “In support of our steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip… and in response to the Israeli enemy’s attack and assassination in the town of Ebba,” according to the statement.

Footage circulating on social media shows a fire breaking out at the Sharaga military base following a drone strike from Lebanon.

Hezbollah said that it had carried out the strikes in retaliation to the Israeli attacks waged against civilians as well as the assassination of three of its members in a southern Lebanese town.

The Israeli occupation has been on a heightened state of security alert amid a widely anticipated retaliation operation by Hezbollah.

This is the second time in as many days that Hezbollah drones have evaded the Israeli military’s missile systems and radars and reached sensitive Israeli army targets.

Hezbollah also attacked an Israeli military vehicle on Tuesday in another location.

The Israeli military said a number of hostile drones were identified crossing from Lebanon and claimed that one was intercepted.

It added that several Israelis were injured to the south of the coastal city of Nahariya. Footage has gone viral showing one impact site near a bus stop on a main road outside the city.

Fears are rising among the Israelis of a powerful Hezbollah retaliation following a vow by its Secretary-General Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah to avenge the assassination of senior Hezbollah commander Fouad Shokor.

Earlier on Tuesday, four people were reportedly killed by an Israeli strike on a residential home in the Lebanese town of Mayfadoun.

The Lebanese resistance movement has been exchanging fire with the Israeli military fire for the last ten months in solidarity with Gaza.
