This attack comes after Israel accused Lebanese militant group Hezbollah of carrying out a rocket attack on the Golan Heights region. As per Israeli officials, a total of 12 people have been killed and all the victims have been identified as youngsters ages between 10 to 20 years.
While Hezbollah has denied responsibility for the attack and stated that it had nothing to do with it, Israel has vowed a "strong" response against the attack.
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also warned the Lebanese group of paying a "heavy price" for killing civilians. As per the Israeli military, the attack on Majdal Shams was "one of the deadliest attacks on Israeli civilians since October 7, 2023".
Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah have been on edge. The two rival states have exchanged fire almost every day after Hezbollah announced its allyship for Hamas following the October 7 attacks in southern Israel.
