On Sunday, August 25, Hezbollah launched hundreds of rockets toward the Israeli-occupied Galilee and Golan, while deploying dozens of drones targeting targets deeper in Israeli territory. This action is part of the group’s response to the death of its military leader, Fouad Shokor, who was killed in an Israeli raid near Beirut on July 30. In response, the Israeli military conducted a preemptive air operation in southern Lebanon, mobilizing dozens of aircraft and claiming to have destroyed thousands of rockets and launch pads.
