Hezbollah says launched drones at Israeli base near Haifa

BEIRUT (AFP): Hezbollah said it launched drones towards a military base near the north Israel city of Haifa on Wednesday, dedicating the attack to the group’s slain chief Hassan Nasrallah.

Hezbollah fighters launched “an air attack with a swarm of explosives-laden drones” on the base south of Haifa, a statement from the group said, adding it came “in response to” Israel attacks and dedicating it to Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli strike last month.
