Hezbollah said Sunday it launched dozens of rockets at northern Israel in retaliation for a strike on south Lebanon.

Hezbollah fighters launched “dozens of Katyusha rockets” targeting “the headquarters of the Golan Division at Nafah base,” the group said in a statement, saying it was “in response to the enemy’s attack targeting the Bekaa region.”

“Enemy warplanes launched a strike at around 1:30 am this morning on a factory in Sifri,” Lebanon’s official National News Agency said.

Sifri is located in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, near the city of Baalbek, around 80 kilometers from the Israel-Lebanon frontier.

The Israeli army said its warplanes “struck a Hezbollah military structure... deep inside Lebanon,” referring to the location as “Safri.”

Last month, a building in Sifri was targeted in an Israeli raid, according to a source close to Hezbollah, while the Israeli army said it had targeted Hezbollah sites in Lebanon’s east.

East Lebanon’s Baalbek area is a Hezbollah stronghold and has been repeatedly struck by Israel in recent weeks.

Israel and Lebanon's Iran-backed Hezbollah group have exchanged regular cross-border fire since Palestinian militant group Hamas's unprecedented October 7 attack on southern Israel sparked war in the Gaza Strip.

Fighting has intensified in recent weeks, with Hamas ally Hezbollah stepping up its attacks on northern Israel, and the Israeli military striking deeper into Lebanese territory.
