Occupied Golan attack caused by Israeli anti-missile system: Hezbollah tells UN

Tehran, IRNA – Lebanon’s Hezbollah Resistance Movement said on Saturday that an attack that took place in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights earlier in the day was caused by an Israeli anti-rocket interceptor hitting a soccer field.

According to IRNA, citing Lebanese media Hezbollah informed the United Nations about its position and once again emphasized that the cause of the Majdal Shams incident at the football stadium was not a resistance rocket but the Zionist regime’s own anti-aircraft missile.

The American Axios news site also quoted a US official as saying that Hezbollah had already announced that the incident in the occupied Golan was caused by an anti-aircraft missile of the regime.

"Hezbollah officials told the UN that the incident was the result of an Israeli anti-rocket interceptor hitting the soccer field", Axios quoted the official.

Israeli media reported the death of 9 soldiers in the attack that occurred in the Druze village of Majdal Shams town in the occupied Golan Heights. The regime had blamed Hezbollah.  

The resistance movement however categorically denied any involvement, saying that it had fired no rocket and had no connection with the incident.

Hezbollah and the Zionist regime have been engaged in almost daily clashes on Lebanon’s southern border since early October when the regime unleased its brutal war on Gaza.

Concerns have grown in recent weeks over a full-blown war between the Lebanese movement and the regime amid Israeli threats and its disregard for international calls to end the genocidal war on Gaza.
