CAIRO – 28 July 2024: Israel announced on Sunday that it conducted airstrikes overnight against Hezbollah-affiliated targets in Lebanon. The attack came just hours after a rocket assault on the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights has killed 12 people and left 20 others wounded. Israel has attributed the series of attacks on Saturday, which included a rocket strike on a soccer field in the Druze town of Majdal Shams, in the Golan Heights, to Hezbollah. “According to reliable intelligence information in the possession of the IDF, Hezbollah is behind the attack,” the army said in a social media post. The IDF further revealed that the rocket strike on Majdal Shams was part of a series of three separate barrages launched by Hezbollah, comprising a total of 40 projectiles aimed at northern Israel.
