Sirens sound in Haifa as fresh rocket barrage fired at city
A fresh rocket barrage was launched toward the northern city of Haifa a short while ago.
Sirens are sounding in the city and nearby towns.
The new attack comes after some 85 rockets were already fired at the city today, in the largest barrage on Haifa amid the war, and after Hezbollah’s deputy leader Naim Qassem said in a televised address that the Iran-backed terror group’s capabilities are intact despite the “painful blows” inflicted by Israel in recent weeks.
