Rockets Launched toward Northern Israel, IDF Strikes Hizbullah
(Jerusalem Post) Tzvi Joffre - On Sunday, three rockets were fired from Lebanon toward Rosh Pina and nearby areas, just east of Safed. Two of the rockets were intercepted and one fell in an open area. The IDF struck the site from where the rockets were launched in response. Then six rockets were fired toward Kiryat Shmona, with three rockets falling within the city. Later, ten rockets were fired toward Nahariya, Shlomi, and nearby communities, with the IDF striking in southern Lebanon in response. The Fajr Forces, linked to the Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated Islamic Group in Lebanon, claimed responsibility for the rocket fire toward Kiryat Shmona. The Lebanese branch of Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades claimed responsibility for the rocket fire toward Nahariya and Shlomi. On Sunday night, a number of rockets were fired from Syria toward Israel, falling in open areas. The IDF responded against the source of the rocket fire. Terrorist infrastructure belonging to Hizbullah was also hit in IDF strikes throughout the day.
