IDF: 6 rockets fired this morning from Lebanon, probe ongoing into who’s responsible

Six rockets were launched from Lebanon in the attack on the northern Israeli border community of Metula this morning, three of which crossed the border and were intercepted by air defenses, according to the military.

The other three rockets fell short in Lebanon.

The military is still investigating which group was behind the attack. There has been no claim of responsibility yet, and Hezbollah in a statement denies it launched the rockets.

Immediately after the rocket fire, the IDF carried out artillery shelling toward the source of the rocket fire and later carried out a wave of airstrikes on dozens of Hezbollah launchers and a command center.

The IDF says that it will act against any threat in Lebanon, regardless of the group involved.

Since the beginning of the ceasefire in Lebanon, the IDF says it has killed over 100 terror operatives and targeted over 120 sites in Lebanon that posed a threat to Israel, including efforts by Hezbollah to rebuild its infrastructure and rearm.
