Hezbollah has fired more than 50 rockets from Lebanon at northern Israel this morning, according to IDF assessments.
One rocket struck the border city of Kiryat Shmona, lightly injuring two people.
The barrage comes as Israelis celebrate the first day of the Passover festival, forcing hundreds of thousands of people into shelters.
