Hezbollah shells Israeli Air Force base, neighboring settlements

 Fighters from the armed wing of the Shiite Hezbollah movement have launched a missile attack on the air operations control and electronic warfare center at the Meron air base in northern Israel.

Al Mayadeen TV reported that at least 30 projectiles were fired at the facility from several rocket launchers. According to eyewitnesses, several powerful explosions were heard near the base.

 This is the fifth time since the beginning of the year that Shiite formations have fired at the Meron base. The military facility controls the airspace over the eastern Mediterranean.
