More than 60 people have been injured in a drone strike targeting the Binyamina region of northern Israel, medics have said.

In a statement, volunteer emergency response organisation United Hatzalah said the conditions of the wounded ranged from critical to mild. It said all had been taken to five regional hospitals, either by ambulance or helicopter.

Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for the attack, which it said targeted a training camp of the Israeli Defence Forces’ (IDF) Golani Brigade in the area, which is based between Tel Aviv and Haifa.

The armed group’s media office said the strike was in response to Israeli attacks in southern Lebanon and Beirut on Thursday.

    Pre-emptive: this was an act of violence and if you cheer it, the comment will be removed.

    Feel free to call me a horrible Zionist when that happens. It has nothing to do with Israel and everything to do with Rule 6 in the sidebar.

      You’re a horrible zionist when that happens. Rule 6 is AIPAC propaganda. I know it’s you, Netanyahu. The “Flying Squid” nickname is a dead giveaway.

        I’m always a Zionist when I delete a comment that is both a valid criticism of Israel and violates our rules according to certain people.

        I don’t think they understand that’s possible.
