The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced a series of operations on Thursday, targeting Israeli military sites and forces, in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza and their Resistance.

Operations included the launching of air defense missiles against Israeli fighter jets in southern Lebanon by the group's Air Defense unit, marking the second such operation in under 24 hours.

Hezbollah said that the targeting came in response to the Israeli violation of Lebanese airspace, confirming that Israeli jets scrambled away back to northern occupied Palestine.
