According to the IDF, 160 rockets were fired at northern Israel in Hezbollah’s major barrages earlier today.

Another 15 drones were launched by the terror group at northern Israel, and many of them were shot down by air defenses, the military says.

Hezbollah said the attack was a response to the killing of a senior commander in an IDF strike yesterday.
