Hezbollah launched a drone attack on an Israeli military camp in Binyamina, northern Israel, resulting in 67 people being wounded. The attack caught the Israelis off guard, with no warning sirens heard before the strike. Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attack, saying they used a “swarm of drones” to target the Golani Brigade camp. They also targeted the Tsnobar logistics base in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights with a missile. The attack came on the same day that the US announced it would send a new air-defense system to Israel to help protect against missile attacks.
The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has escalated, with Israel intensifying its offensive against the group in Lebanon. More than 2,100 people in Lebanon have been killed, and over 1.2 million have been displaced since the conflict began last October. Israeli political analyst Gideon Levy warns that there will be a heavy price to pay for escalating the war in Lebanon, as attacks on Lebanon also result in consequences for Israel. Hezbollah has vowed to continue attacking Israel in solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza and in defense of Lebanon.
The attack in Binyamina highlights the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, as both sides continue to engage in attacks and retaliation. The situation remains tense, with the potential for further escalation on both sides.
