Hezbollah launched a drone attack on military posts in Amiad, northern Israel, as announced in a statement from the armed group on Wednesday.

The kibbutz of Amiad is approximately 22 kilometers (14 miles) from the Lebanese border. Israel's military authorities stated they could not confirm the attack. Hezbollah asserted that this move was in retaliation for an Israeli strike in Lebanon's Bekaa region overnight.

The hostility between Hezbollah and the Israeli military has continued for the last 10 months, paralleling the ongoing Gaza conflict between Israel and Hamas. This situation has led to increased concerns about the potential for an intensified Middle East conflict.
