Lebanon's Hezbollah bolsters attacks on Israel with new weapons — chief

Beirut, Lebanon: Hezbollah's chief said Saturday that the group was using new weapons in attacks against Israel, as exchanges of fire on Lebanon's southern border intensify while Israel battles Hamas militants in Gaza.

Over the past week, the Iran-backed group has 'bolstered' its action 'on the Lebanese front in terms of the number of operations, targets, and the type of weapons', Hassan Nasrallah said in his second televised address since the Hamas-Israel war began.
