For the first time ever, Hezbollah has launched rockets with a range of over 100 kilometers causing sirens to sound a short time ago (Monday) in Samaria. The alarms were activated in Ariel, Alei Zahav in Ruchin, Beit Aryeh and Revava and other localities.
The IDF later confirmed that ten rockets were fired at the Samaria area as part of a barrage of about 80 rockets on northern Israel.
"Following the sirens that sounded at 17:12 in the area of Shomron, approximately 10 projectiles were identified crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory. Fallen projectiles were identified in open areas," the IDF stated.
Earlier in the afternoon, sirens were also activated in numerous communities in northern Israel, including Haifa, Acre, Kiryat Bialik, Kiryat Motzkin, Kiryat Yam, and Kfar Bialik, as well as in communities in the Upper Galilee.
A direct hit was reported in Kiryat Tiv'on.
