Hezbollah fires 200 rockets at Israel after senior commander killed


Hezbollah has launched one of its largest rocket barrages at northern Israel since the start of the war on Gaza.

The launch of more than 200 projectiles on Wednesday morning came in response to the killing of a senior Hezbollah commander in southeastern Lebanon in a strike the previous evening. The attacks raise concern that the military confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah is escalating, with both saying they are prepared for war.

The Israeli military confirmed on Wednesday it had killed Taleb Abdullah as well as three other Hezbollah fighters in the strike.
