A barrage of some 40 rockets was launched from Lebanon at the Safed area an hour ago, the IDF says.

Additionally, the military says several drones launched at the Western Galilee were shot down by air defenses, and another drone launched impacted in the Upper Galilee.

Meanwhile, the IDF says it carried out dozens more strikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon, amid the military’s ground operations.
