In response to nighttime airstrikes on the country's east, Lebanon's Hezbollah organization, which is supported by Iran, claimed to have fired "more than 60" rockets toward Israeli military positions on Thursday. After Hezbollah, an ally of Hamas, launched an offensive on southern Israel on October 7, which set off the Gaza War, which is currently in its ninth month, Israel and the Palestinian group have been exchanging gunfire almost nonstop.
