Hezbollah claims strike on Israeli air defenсe near Caesarea

The Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah said it had carried out a strike on Israeli air defence systems near the central Israeli city of Caesarea, an area where the private residence of Benjamin Netanyahu is located.

According to France 24, the group announced the attack in an official statement.

Hezbollah said the strike targeted an air defence system in the Caesarea area using what it described as a series of advanced missiles.

“In response to the criminal Israeli aggression that affected dozens of Lebanese towns and villages, including the southern suburbs of Beirut, we targeted an air defence system in the Caesarea area with a series of advanced missiles,” the group said in its statement.
