Hezbollah issued a statement on Saturday claiming that its Islamic Resistance forces successfully launched a volley of Fadi 3 missiles targeting the Ramat David airbase in Israeli Occupation.

Hezbollah stated that the missile strike was a direct response to the "barbaric onslaught" by Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) on cities, villages, and civilians.

The group emphasized that the targeting of "Israeli" bases and airports is part of its support for the steadfast Palestinian people in Gaza and in solidarity with their "brave and honorable resistance."

Hezbollah had issued on Friday night their first official statement following the “Israeli” strike on their main headquarters in Dahieh, Beirut.

The group's statement came as "Israel" had resumed its airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs in the early hours of Saturday, with the Israeli Occupation military confirming it was attacking Hezbollah positions in the capital.

Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) also announced an additional attack on Hezbollah targets in the Beqaa Valley in eastern Lebanon.

Earlier, an "Israeli" military spokesperson stated that Tel Aviv was assessing the results of an airstrike on Hezbollah’s central command in Beirut’s southern suburbs.

The spokesperson noted that the strike on Hezbollah’s headquarters had been precise, while adding that there was no change to the Home Front Command's instructions regarding the situation.
