Israel bombs Hezbollah ‘intelligence HQ’ (VIDEO)

The Israeli military says it has bombed a Hezbollah intelligence compound in Beirut during its latest series of airstrikes in Lebanon. 

Jets struck the pro-Palestinian armed group’s “intelligence headquarters” as well as command centers and “additional terrorist infrastructure sites,” the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement early on Monday.

The strikes also targeted Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon and the Beqaa area, destroying a weapons storage and command center, the IDF added. In a separate statement, the army said Israeli troops were continuing cross-border operations against Hezbollah and carried out raids in the Jabaliya area of Gaza.

According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, at least 11 people were killed and 17 others injured by Israeli strikes on Sunday.

Israeli aircraft also targeted the Al-Aqsa Hospital compound in Deir al Balah, which according to the IDF was being used by Hamas as a “command and control center.”

Hezbollah, meanwhile, continued firing rockets into northern Israel, with projectiles detected over Haifa and the Upper Galilee area on Saturday. Videos from Haifa show a crater and debris from falling rockets.

At least ten people were injured in Israel from Hezbollah attacks overnight, local media reported. At least eight people were evacuated to Haifa’s Rambam Health Care Campus for treatment following the strikes, according to the Jerusalem Post.
