Hezbollah issued a statement on Saturday, dismissing Israeli allegations that it was behind a rocket attack on Majdal Shams, a town in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, earlier in the day.
Reuters also cited senior Hezbollah media representative Mohammad Afif who denied responsibility for the incident.
“The Islamic Resistance has absolutely nothing to do with the incident, and categorically denies all false allegations in this regard”, Reuters reported.
Israeli media said that 11 people were killed and 40 others injured when a rocket exploded in a soccer field in the Druze village of Majdal Shams. Initial reports had put the death toll at 9.
In the meantime, some media outlets said that the incident in Majdal Shams was likely caused after an Iron Dome missile struck the town mistakenly.
Hezbollah and the Zionist regime have been engaged in daily clashes on Lebanon’s southern border since early October when the regime unleased its brutal war on Gaza.
The Lebanese resistance movement has time and again said that it aims to provide support to Palestinians and their resistance fighters in Gaza. The movement has also said that it will continue trading fire with Israel until the regime stops its war on Gaza as well as its acts of aggression on southern Lebanon.
The latest attacks by Hezbollah hit three Israeli military bases, involving dozens of Katyusha rockets as well as Burkan missiles.
The movement on Saturday night also released footage of its attack targeting the Zionist regime’s anti-drone system in Ramia base near Lebanon’s border.
