According to the IDF, some 20 rockets were launched in the Hezbollah barrage at the Lower Galilee this morning.
Several of the rockets were shot down by air defenses, it says. One impact near the community of Kfar Zeitim seriously wounded a man, and other strikes sparked fires.
Earlier today, a suspected drone was shot down by air defenses over the border community of Ramot Naftali, the IDF says.
Sirens had sounded in the community at around 5:30 a.m., due to fears of falling shrapnel.
There were no injuries in that incident.
The IDF publishes footage of the interception.
