A senior Israeli military source told Reuters on Saturday that Hezbollah fired more than 50 rockets and mortar shells at IDF forces operating in southern Lebanon overnight. The source did not specify exact types of munitions or precise locations but described a sustained barrage. No casualties were reported on the Israeli side, and the IDF spokesperson has not yet issued an official statement.
This is the latest in a series of exchanges along the Lebanon border. As The Zioneer has previously reported, Hezbollah has claimed multiple attacks on Israeli troops in southern Lebanon in recent weeks, including anti-tank missile fire and mortar salvos, as well as IDF artillery barrages and airstrikes in response. Most incidents have remained at a level below full-scale escalation.
The overnight barrage, if confirmed, would be among the heaviest single Hezbollah attacks reported since the intensification of border incidents. No group claim of responsibility has been published yet. The account from a single senior military source appears credible but remains a single-source report, pending further confirmation.
