Air defense assets of the Shiite militia Hezbollah opened fire on the Israeli Air Force, which violated Lebanese airspace, and forced them to turn back.
The official statement emphasized that the air defense used anti-aircraft guided missiles to prevent the enemy aircraft from operating and expelling them from Lebanese airspace.
Earlier it became known that the Israeli air force attacked Hezbollah rocket launchers and military facilities in southern Lebanon.
Recently, a series of explosions were reported following Israeli Air Force strikes on ammunition depots in Adlun in southern Lebanon.
On July 20, Hezbollah armed forces carried out a massive rocket attack on Israel Defense Forces (IDF) positions on the Golan Heights, firing more than fifty shells from multiple launch rocket systems at the Golan and the Galilee salient.
