Hezbollah said early Saturday it was engaged in ongoing clashes with Israeli troops in the Lebanon border area, after earlier saying it forced Israeli soldiers to retreat there.
“Iraeli enemy soldiers renewed an attempt to advance toward the vicinity of the municipality in the village of Adaysseh,” and Hezbollah fighters confronted the attempt “and clashes are continuing,” the group said in a statement.
It said earlier that its fighters had forced Israeli troops to “retreat” in the same area. The Iran-backed Lebanese group also said it targeted troops in south Lebanon’s Yarun area with a “rocket salvo,” as well as soldiers in two points across the border with rockets.
