Hezbollah describes 'complex operation' that overwhelmed Israel's air defence
Hezbollah has provided new details about its deadly attack on a military base in central Israel home to the Golani Brigade.
Hezbollah said "in a qualitative and complex operation" its missile force launched dozens of missiles into Israel to occupy its air defence systems.
“At the same time, the air force of the Islamic Resistance launched squadrons of various drones towards various areas in Acre and Haifa. The qualitative drones were able to penetrate the Israeli air defence radars without being detected and reached their target in a training camp for the elite Golani Brigade in the Binyamina area," the group said.
The precise attack killed at least 4 Israeli soldiers and wounded dozens. It also underscores how Israel's vaunted air defence system can be overcome by firing multiple projectiles at once.
Footage from the base shows a the impact of the attack, including in a military mess hall.
