The Israeli regime has shelled southern Lebanon following rocket fire from the country into northern parts of occupied Palestinian territories.
Israel shells southern Lebanon after rocket attack
  On Saturday, the regime fired artillery shells into southern Lebanon after rockets were launched against the northern city of Akko, slightly hurting two children. The rocket was reportedly fired from the Christian-populated village of Alma in the Zgharta District and hit a building in eastern Akko.

Since the beginning of the Israeli war on the besieged Gaza Strip such incidents have happened several times. Israeli warplanes and tanks have been pounding the blockaded enclave since early July, inflicting heavy losses on the Palestinian land.

Some 2,100 people, mostly civilians, have lost their lives and over 10,200 have been injured despite pressure from the international community on the Tel Aviv regime to end aggression against Palestinians.

Nearly 400,000 Palestinian children are in immediate need of psychological help due to “catastrophic and tragic impact” of the Israeli war, according to the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).

The Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, has been launching retaliatory attacks against Israel. HK
