In a series of operations on Saturday, the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah said it targeted various Israeli military bases and forces' positions located in northern-occupied Palestine.

Hezbollah reiterated that the operations are in support of the "steadfast Palestinian people in Gaza, their brave and honorable Resistance and in response to the Israeli aggression on the steadfast southern Lebanese villages and civilian homes."

The group also announced that one of its fighters succumbed to his wounds sustained earlier while carrying out his Resistance duty on the path to al-Quds.

The martyr was identified as Ibrahim Hassan Fadel (Jihad), born in 2003, from the town of Touline, South Lebanon.
