Tensions are escalating on the southern front as a Lebanese army base at Alma al-Shaab was the target of Israeli machine gun fire, on Wednesday, with no injuries reported.

Hezbollah, in a statement, announced having “targeted the spy equipment at the Raheb site.” At the same time, sirens sounded in Shtula in the Upper Galilee at the border with Lebanon.

Earlier, the Israeli army declared having “attacked a military building where Hezbollah operatives were staying in Naqoura.” The Israeli army also announced having “shot down a suspicious aerial target off the coast of northern Israel.”

Moreover, Israeli media reported “numerous rockets fired from Lebanon, landing in open areas near Shtula, in the western sector.”

In the morning, Wadi Hassan was shelled by Israeli artillery, in addition to the outskirts of Jebbine and Chihine, after Israeli media reported a “strong explosion in Nahariya, with no sirens triggered.”

Yesterday night, Israeli warplanes raided Naqoura, resulting in minor injuries on a number of citizens. Israel also fired heavy artillery shells on the outskirts of the towns of Naqoura, Alma al-Shaab, Tayr Harfa and Dhayra.
