Friday, 9 February 2024 | Sirens were heard in the Upper Galilee communities of Dalton, Kerem Ben Zimra and Kadita Thursday night after some 30 rockets were launched into northern Israel in a heavy barrage from Lebanon. All projectiles landed in unpopulated areas, causing no damage or casualties.

These settlements are located near Mount Meron, where Hezbollah earlier claimed to have directed rockets, targeting an Air Force base. Residents in the area reported explosions.

Footage shared on social media captured the moment of impact and five explosions can be seen on a mountain slope. There were no reports of damage or casualties in that attack either.

This attack followed a car bombing in Nabatieh, southern Lebanon, intended for a Hezbollah commander, who was wounded, according to Lebanese sources, and not killed as first reported.

The drone strike in Nabatieh came as Hezbollah and Israel continue to trade blows across the border, with the Shi’ite terrorist group having claimed responsibility for at least seven attacks on Israeli soil since Thursday morning.
