In a heartbreaking incident on Saturday evening, a rocket attack struck a football pitch near Majdal Shams in the occupied Golan Heights, resulting in the tragic loss of 12 children. The Israeli foreign ministry has attributed the attack to Hezbollah, asserting that the rocket used was of Iranian origin. \"The rocket that murdered our boys and girls was an Iranian rocket, and Hezbollah is the only organization which has those in its arsenal,\" officials stated.
Hezbollah has vehemently denied any involvement in the attack, claiming it had \"absolutely nothing to do with the incident.\" The escalation of tensions following this event has led Israeli officials to warn of a potential \"catastrophe beyond belief\" should Israel decide to launch a full-scale offensive against Hezbollah.
This incident underscores the fragile stability of the region and the devastating impact of ongoing conflicts on innocent lives. As international communities watch closely, the situation remains volatile, with the potential for significant repercussions across the Middle East.
