Escalation continued on the southern border on Wednesday afternoon as Hezbollah announced having “targeted a building used by Israeli soldiers in Avivim with appropriate weapons and achieving accurate hits.” In parallel, Israeli media reported that “Avivim witnessed a fire outbreak after an anti-armor missile was launched from Lebanon.”

In another statement, Hezbollah declared “shelling the Sammaqa and Baghdadi sites as well as a building used by Israeli soldiers in Kfar Giladi with rocket weaponry and achieving direct hits.”

Later, the pro-Iranian party also targeted the Ramim barracks.

On the other hand, Israeli warplanes bombed the Kharbiya region on the outskirts of Rachaya al-Foukhar and the town of Rab Thalathin, amid intense artillery shelling of Hama Rashaya.

Naqoura was also targeted by Israeli artillery before the Israeli army announced raiding Hezbollah military buildings in Aita al-Shaab and reconnaissance bases in Alma al-Shaab.

Earlier today, Hezbollah issued two statements mourning Muhammad Ali Bou Taama and Ali Hassan Sultan, who were killed by an Israeli drone attack on the town of Odaisseh last night.
