TEHRAN (Defapress) - The movement announced on Monday that Hezbollah fighters fired rockets and mortars at Israeli soldiers, forcing them to retreat.

“Upon observing the infiltration of a group of [Israeli] soldiers into the Hadab Aita forest, the Islamic Resistance fighters confronted them ... with rockets and artillery shells, which forced them to retreat,” said the statement.

Several Israeli soldiers were killed and injured, Hezbollah said, without specifying.
