Four Israeli soldiers were killed by a Hezbollah drone strike on a military base south of Haifa, the Israeli army announced in a statement. "Four Israeli soldiers were killed in the incident, and seven others were seriously injured," according to the army, as cited by AFP.
Earlier, Hezbollah announced it had launched missiles at an Israeli military base near Haifa, in the northern part of the country, shortly after claiming responsibility for a drone attack that left more than 60 wounded in the area.
It stated its fighters had launched "a salvo of missiles at the maintenance and rehabilitation base south of Haifa," Israel's largest city in the north, claiming the attack was in retaliation to former leader Hassan Nasrallah's killing, who was assassinated on Sept. 27 by an Israeli strike in Beirut's southern suburbs.
