Sirens sounded Wednesday in the northern city of Rosh Hanikra, although the army said that all of the rockets fired from Lebanon landed in open areas, with no reports of damage or injuries. Projectiles were also fired at other areas along the northern border, including at the Yiftah area, landing in open areas, according to the IDF.
The military said its fighter jets hit a number of sites belonging to the terror group, including a Hezbollah cell, and ground forces struck several terror cells along the Lebanon border. Photos and video from southern Lebanon showed thick black plumes of smoke rising into the air after the Israeli strikes, which reportedly were centered near Naqoura, across the border from Rosh Hanikra.
The strikes on Wednesday came after the IDF also carried out airstrikes in both Lebanon and Syria late Tuesday evening, following rocket fire from both countries.
On Tuesday evening, three rockets were fired from Syria at the Golan Heights, with two falling short in Syrian territory, and the third landing in an open area in Israel, according to the IDF. The military said troops responded with artillery shelling at the source of the fire. READ MORE
