After more than 40 rockets were launched by Hezbollah from Lebanon at Kiryat Shmona this evening, the IDF says it struck the launcher used in the attack.

The launcher, in the Jabal Blat area, was struck by a drone shortly after the rocket fire, the army says.

Separately, a Hezbollah cell was targeted in Yarine, the IDF adds.
