More than 90 rockets were launched from Lebanon at the Haifa Bay area a short while ago, the IDF says.

In the first barrage of 80 rockets, the IDF says that most were shot down by air defenses, but several struck inside towns.

The second barrage consisted of 10 rockets, all of which the IDF says were either intercepted or hit open areas.

Damage was caused to homes and cars in Kiryat Ata, and a teenager was slightly hurt by glass shards.

It marks one of the largest rocket attacks on the port city amid the fighting with Hezbollah. On October 8, 2024, Hezbollah launched over 100 rockets at Haifa in two barrages.
