IDF: 3 rockets from Lebanon hit sea off northern Israel coast
Judah Ari Gross is The Times of Israel's religions and Diaspora affairs correspondent.
The Israel Defense Forces confirms that three rockets were fired from Lebanon toward the sea off Israel’s northern coast.
The rockets caused no damage or injury as they hit the water, according to the military.
As they were heading toward an unpopulated area, no sirens or air defenses were triggered.
The IDF does not comment on who is behind the rocket attack. A Lebanese military source tells the country’s MTV news channel that a fringe Palestinian group appears to have launched the rockets, not the Hezbollah terrorist militia.
