The Israeli military says 18 soldiers were wounded in a drone attack by Hezbollah in the occupied Golan Heights.

The Israeli military says 18 soldiers were wounded, including one seriously, in a drone attack conducted by the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement in the occupied Golan Heights.

In a statement released Sunday on its X account, Israel’s Army Radio said the casualties came after “the explosion of a Hezbollah drone launched from southern Lebanon.”

Hezbollah also announced that it had targeted the headquarters of the 91st Brigade north of the occupied territories in response to Israeli strikes against the resistance group.

Earlier on Sunday, Hezbollah said three of its fighters were killed in an Israeli airstrike that hit a two-story building in the village of Houla.

3 Hezbollah members killed in Israeli drone strike on southern Lebanon village

Three fighters from Hezbollah resistance movement have been killed in an Israeli airstrike against a two-story building in Lebanon’s southeastern village of Houla.

Meanwhile, the Israeli military reported that its fighter jets had attacked Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon, including an observation post in the area of Markaba and a launch pad in the Ayta ash Shab village.

Israeli forces, it added, further fired artillery into several areas in southern Lebanon.

Hezbollah and Israel have been exchanging deadly fire since early October, shortly after the regime launched a genocidal war against the Gaza Strip following a surprise operation by the Palestinian Hamas resistance group.

Hezbollah has vowed to keep up its retaliatory attacks as long as the Tel Aviv regime continues its Gaza onslaught, which has so far killed at least 37,877 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 86,969 others.

Hezbollah officials have repeatedly said they do not want a war with Israel but if it happens they are ready.
