Hezbollah on April 21 announced that it had carried out an attack against the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in response to ceasefire violations in the first such development.
In a statement, the group said that it targeted an artillery position in the northern Israeli settlement of Kfar Giladi with a rocket barrage and suicide drones.
Hezbollah claimed to have documented over 200 Israeli violations of the United States-brokered ten-day ceasefire since it took effect on April 17. It noted that the attack against the IDF was carried out in response to those violations, which included the destruction of civilian properties, and within its “right to resist occupation and repel it.”
The group mentioned recent Israeli artillery strikes on the town of Yahmar al-Shaqif in southern Lebanon. white phosphorus shells were reportedly used.
Earlier, the IDF said that Hezbollah violated the ceasefire by firing several rockets at Israeli troops stationed in southern Lebanon, as well as launching a drone at Israel.
According to the military, the group fired several rockets toward troops stationed in the Rab al-Thalathine area, within the Israeli-occupied security zone. Within a few minutes, Israeli strikes hit the launcher used in the attack.
Separately, the IDF said that the sirens that sounded in the settlement of Kfar Yuval and Ma’ayan Baruch on the Lebanon border were not false alarms as initially reported. Following an examination, the military said that the alerts were triggered in the northern settlements due to the interception of a drone that was launched from Lebanon. The drone was shot down before crossing the border, according to the military.
The IDF described Hezbollah attacks as “blatant violations of the ceasefire agreement,” which is set to end in just five days.
Hezbollah’s attacks shows that the group is not willing to tolerate Israeli violations unlike in the previous ceasefire, which was also brokered by the U.S.
The escalation came ahead of a second round of ambassador-level peace talks between Israel and Lebanon set to be held in the U.S. later in the week.

hezbollah should not announce anything, unless it is seeking recruits. do not talk when you can do.
‘blatant violations of the ceasefire agreement’
the chutzpah of these lying murderous inbreds is off any chart.
yes ceasefires are not possible with them they break it as soon as its announced. the only thing they deserve is a full dismantlement of their entire colonial project and removal of any position of power within our g overnments and institutions.
hezbola didn’t attack shit, it only retaliated against a huge turd…hehehehe
although the mossad chief did not specify exactly who “m” was, when he was killed, or what incident occurred, following his initial disclosure, israeli media claimed that the agent was killed in italy in 2023.
at the time, he was reportedly collaborating with italian intelligence to allegedly prevent tehran from acquiring certain advanced equipment.
the idf described hezbollah attacks as “blatant violations of the ceasefire agreement,” which is set to end in just five days.— they talk about violations? those that killed hundreds of hezbos during 18 months of ceasefire vs 0 killed? shameless.
