Lebanon’s Hezbollah group says its fighters bombed Israel’s Nimra military base, west of Tiberias, with dozens of Katyusha rockets, Al Jazeera reports.

The statement on Telegram said the attack came in response to the Israeli drone strike on a car in Lebanon’s Baalbek that killed Meitham Mustafa al-Attar, a Hezbollah fighter who Israel claims was a senior figure in the group’s air defence unit.
