A barrage of some 90 rockets was fired by Hezbollah from Lebanon at the Upper Galilee an hour ago, the IDF says.

According to the military, some of the rockets were intercepted.

Impacts were reported in Safed and nearby towns, causing damage. There are no immediate reports of injuries.

Fires were also sparked by impacts in open areas.

Meanwhile, the IDF says it struck the launchers used to fire a barrage of rockets at Kiryat Shmona earlier today, in an attack that killed two Israeli civilians.

It releases footage of the strikes.
