TEHRAN (defapress) - The aircraft conducted the flights over the city in early Sunday, one of the social media news channels reported.

The incident saw the warplanes “breaking the sound barrier and firing flares over the city,” it added.

The regime began waging sporadic attacks against Lebanon following the onset of Tel Aviv’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, prompting a firefight with the country’s resistance movement Hezbollah.

The movement has retaliated against the aggression by firing hundreds of rockets into the northern parts of the occupied territories.

Tel Aviv has been issuing recurrent threats of turning Lebanon into another Gaza.
Earlier this month, the Israeli army said it had approved plans for an attack on the country, raising concerns that the regime might try to realize the threats.

Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has, however, asserted in a speech addressing the Israeli threats that “in case an inclusive war is imposed on Lebanon, the resistance will fight without restraints, without rules, without limits.”

“Whoever thinks of war against us will regret it,” the Hezbollah leader noted.

The movement fought off two Israeli wars against Lebanon in 2000 and 2006, forcing a humiliating retreat upon the Tel Aviv regime’s military in both cases.
