Northern Israel Hit by Heaviest Hizbullah Rocket Barrages since Outbreak of War
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Rockets fired from Lebanon pummeled the towns of Rosh Hanikra and Kiryat Shmona in northern Israel on Wednesday in a major escalation of violence. Six rockets struck inside Kiryat Shmona, causing damage to residential buildings and infrastructure. An additional three rockets were intercepted by Iron Dome, with the remainder landing in open areas. The city, normally home to over 20,000 people, has been largely evacuated in recent months, along with other towns near Israel's border, due to near-daily rocket, missile and drone attacks launched by Hizbullah and allied groups.
