According to Israeli officials, at least 34 rockets were fired from southern Lebanon earlier this week at the Western and Upper Galilee regions of northern Israel.

According to preliminary estimates given by the Kan public broadcaster, at least five landed in Israeli territory, causing injuries and damage in some cases.

The remaining planes were shot down by the Iron Dome air defence system.

The Israel Defense Forces has yet to provide an exact number of rockets.

The attack may mark the largest number of rockets fired from Lebanon since the 2006 war, during which thousands of rockets were launched at Israel. In August 2021, Hezbollah fired 19 rockets at northern Israel.
