The body of a man was found in a field near the northern community of Kfar Masaryk a short while ago. According to medics, the man was killed in a Hezbollah rocket barrage on the area earlier today.
Magen David Adom says a farmhand who found the body led medics to the site.
MDA medics report that the man in his 40s, a foreign worker, was suffering from severe shrapnel injuries, and they were forced to declare his death at the scene.
Kfar Masaryk is located between Acre and Haifa in northern Israel.
Hezbollah has fired more than 150 rockets at Israel today, including a barrage of 25 rockets at the Western Galilee and the Haifa Bay area.
