IDF says around 30 projectiles fired from Lebanon, Hezbollah claims attack
The Israeli military says some 30 projectiles were fired from Lebanon at northern towns where sirens had sounded, but did not cause any injuries.
According to the IDF, some of the projectiles were intercepted and others landed in open areas.
The Hezbollah terror group takes responsibility for the attack, saying it fired Katyusha rockets at a military base in northern Israel near Safed.
The IDF says air force jets attacked the launchers used to carry out the attack “quickly closing the circle.”
Drone alerts that went off in Kiryat Shmona and other nearby areas were a false alarm, the army adds, the second such scare this morning.
