The attacks by the Israeli occupation army were responded to by Hezbollah fighters, who launched some 35 missiles towards Israel from the border. These missiles would have been intercepted by the Israeli Army.
"The reports of interceptions come after an Israeli strike on Wednesday night in the village of Beit Yahoun in southern Lebanon killed five Hezbollah fighters, including the son of a senior Hezbollah member," the Middle East Eye said.
The Lebanon-Israel border witnessed increased tension for over six weeks after Lebanese armed group Hezbollah fired dozens of rockets toward Shebaa Farms on Oct. 8 in support of the Hamas military operation on Israel the previous day.
