Hezbollah said Tuesday evening that it has launched a rocket attack on an Israeli naval base in the northern Israeli city of Haifa, describing the move as a response to ongoing Israeli airstrikes on Lebanese territory.

In a statement, the group said its fighters targeted the naval base with a salvo of what it described as advanced rockets.

Hezbollah said that the attack was carried out in retaliation for what it called "criminal Israeli aggression" that has struck dozens of Lebanese cities and towns, including Beirut's southern suburbs.
