The Hezbollah terror group intended to launch projectiles at central Israel this morning, according to the IDF.

The military says it foiled the attack during this morning’s preemptive airstrikes in southern Lebanon.

But the majority of the Hezbollah rocket launchers struck by the Israeli Air Force this morning were aimed at northern Israel, according to the IDF.

In all, thousands of Hezbollah rocket launchers were struck simultaneously by some 100 IAF fighter jets in the preemptive attacks.
