As Iran’s leadership shifts amid war, Hezbollah moves to reset the balance: expert

Hezbollah escalated its involvement in the widening conflict between Iran and the U.S. and Israel Tuesday, launching long-range missiles from Lebanon within 48 hours of coordinated strikes on Iran amid Operation Epic Fury.

The militant group also declared it was ready for an "open war," The Associated Press reported.

The Iranian-backed militant group fired rockets into northern Israel, prompting Israeli retaliation, according to The Times of Israel. Two were intercepted by air defenses, the military said.
