Hezbollah takes responsibility for the rocket barrage on central Israel earlier today.
In a statement, the terror group claims to have targeted the IDF’s Tzrifin base, located south of Ben Gurion Airport.
The bases houses a number of IDF units, including several training schools and a logistics center.
The IDF said earlier that 10 rockets were launched in the attack, most of which were intercepted. One rocket struck in the Ben Gurion Airport area.
