Arab Towns in Israel Targeted by Hizbullah Missiles
(Ha'aretz) Nagham Zbeedat - Hizbullah has been launching rockets and drones at Kafr Manda and Sakhnin - two Arab towns in northern Israel - damaging homes, cars and commercial properties. Israel's Iron Dome aerial defense system intercepts the majority of missiles in the skies above them. Hizbullah claimed last week that its missiles had targeted "Sakhnin's military base for arms development." But there is no military base in Sakhnin. In September, when Hizbullah rockets targeted Kafr Manda, Arab news outlets labeled the city an Israeli settlement, framing the attack on an Arab town as a successful hit. Other Israeli Arab towns that have endured Hizbullah missile strikes include Deir Al-Asad, Nazareth, and many others.
