At least 10 people, including children, have been killed in a rocket attack on a football pitch in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, according to an Israeli rescue official.
The rocket was fired from Lebanon and hit the football pitch in the Druze village of Majdal Shams.
The attack on the football pitch followed an Israeli strike in Lebanon that killed four militants on Saturday. Two
security sources in Lebanon said the four fighters killed in the Israeli strike on Kfarkila in southern Lebanon were members of different armed groups, with at least one of them belonging to Hezbollah.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its aircraft had targeted a military structure belonging to Hezbollah, after identifying a militant cell entering the building.
Hezbollah claimed at least four attacks, including with Katyusha rockets, in retaliation for the Kfarkila attacks.
However, senior Hezbollah media representative Mohammad Afif denied responsibility for the strike on Majdal Shams.
The IDF claims according to its “situational assessment and intelligence”, Hezbollah was behind the rocket attack.
