Al Jazeera
The military confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah is escalating with both saying they are prepared for war.
Hezbollah has launched one of its largest rocket barrages at northern Israel since the start of the war on Gaza.
The launch of close to 100 projectiles on Wednesday morning came in response to the killing of a senior Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon the previous evening. The attacks raise concern that the military confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah is escalating, with both saying they are prepared for war.
The Israeli military confirmed that at least 90 rockets were fired from Lebanese territory as sirens sounded in dozens of communities across the north of the country. It said many were intercepted but several landed, causing fires. No casualties were reported.
Aerial footage of Israeli warplanes attacking what the military said was the launch site of the rockets in southern Lebanon’s Yaroun was then shown.
