Hamas' armed wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, announced this on the same day. Through their propaganda Telegram channel, the Al-Qassam Brigades stated, "We simultaneously launched 40 Grad missiles in two rounds from southern Lebanon targeting the headquarters of the 769th Brigade of the Israeli military and the Beit Hilal airport barracks."

They added, "This attack was in response to the Zionists' massacre of civilians in the Gaza Strip and assassinations carried out in southern Lebanon."

In response, the Israeli military said, "We detected about 10 projectiles flying across Israeli territory from Lebanon, and intercepted several of them," adding, "We carried out retaliatory strikes on the missile launch sites in southern Lebanon."
