Israeli Military Fires Over 120 In Southern Lebanon, Hamas And Hezbollah Launch Rockets At Israel

<p>”The IAF (air force) conducted an extensive aerial operation and struck over 120 terror targets in southern Lebanon within an hour,” the military said in a statement, according to AFP.</p>
<p>The Israeli military further said that the targets belonged to the group’s elite Radwan forces and other units.</p>
<p>The attack on Lebanon comes on the anniversary of the October 7 attacks last year, when Hamas launched an unprecedented strike on Israel. &nbsp;</p>
<p>Hezbollah also said that it targeted areas north of Israeli city of Haifa, a day after an attack on the northern Israeli city wounded over 10 people, according to Al Jazeera.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, air raid sirens echoed across central Israel, including Tel Aviv, after surface-to-surface missiles were fired from Yemen. Israel did not mention who fired the missile, but Iran-backed Houthis – A Shia militant group in Yemen – have over the past year attacked Israel several times in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.</p>
