Beirut, September 24 (HS). Israel has carried out the biggest air strike since 2006 on the dreaded Iran-backed terrorist group Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israeli fighter jets are still dropping bombs in southern Lebanon. At least 500 people were killed and more than 1600 were injured in Israel's air strike. It should be noted that Hezbollah terrorists are supporting Hamas in the war in Gaza.
