Netanyahu vows to attack Hezbollah without mercy after being hit by a drone

Jakarta –

Prime Minister (PM) of Israel Netanyahu strongly condemns the UAV or drone attacks that have been launched Hizbullah to an Israeli military base, killing 4 soldiers. Netanyahu vowed to strike Hezbollah mercilessly.

“We will continue to mercilessly attack Hezbollah throughout Lebanon – including Beirut,” Netanyahu said during a visit to a base near Binyamina, south of Haifa, as reported by AFP, on Tuesday (15/10/ 2024).

For information, the Israeli military said that four of its soldiers were killed as a result of a UAV (drone) attack by the Hezbollah group on a military base in Haifa. The attack took place on Sunday (13/10) local time amid a growing conflict with the Iranian-backed armed group.

“Yesterday, a UAV launched by the Hezbollah group hit a military base near Binyamina,” the Israeli military said in a statement, reported by the AFP news agency, on Monday (14/10).

“Four IDF (army) soldiers died in the incident and seven others were seriously injured,” he said.

Earlier, the Lebanon-based Hezbollah group, which is at war with Israel, said it had launched a “squadron of combat drones” at a military training camp in Binyamina, south of Haifa, in response to Israeli airstrikes in the country.

The attack was in response to Israeli attacks, including an air strike last Thursday, which the Lebanese Ministry of Health said killed at least 22 people in central Beirut.

In its statement, Hezbollah warned Israel that “what it saw today in southern Haifa is nothing compared to what will happen, if Israel decides to continue the attack against our nobles and loving”.
