The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has announced that it targeted the “Stella Maris” naval base, located northwest of Haifa.
Hezbollah also shared an image on its Telegram channel, accompanied by a message alleging a missile strike in a region north of Caesarea, where Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu resides, although it did not directly claim responsibility for the attack.
Previously, reports indicated that Hezbollah had asserted an assault on the Glilot military base near Tel Aviv using a “missile salvo,” along with what seems to be a subsequent attack on a suburb of Tel Aviv.
In response, Israeli officials have declared a state of emergency in the Tel Aviv region, although no injuries have been reported.
This marks the first instance of medium-range rockets being deployed from this location. Shortly thereafter, air raid sirens were activated in Tel Aviv. Israeli media reports indicate that all air traffic has been halted at Ben Gurion Airport.
Additionally, the Israeli military has implemented emergency protocols in the Tel Aviv vicinity. This serves as a significant indication from Hezbollah that they retain operational capabilities despite ongoing conflicts.
Air traffic at Ben Gurion Airport has been suspended, and the Israeli military has announced a state of emergency in the Tel Aviv region, as reported by our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic, citing Israeli media sources.
Previously, we noted that Hezbollah claimed responsibility for missile strikes on the Nirit area in the suburbs of Tel Aviv, which led to significant explosions.
