Two wounded in Hezbollah missile attack, as northern border heats up

Two Israeli civilians were wounded Thursday in an anti-tank missile attack from Lebanon on the northern town of Dovev, which occurred at the same time as another missile appeared to hit cars in the nearby community of Avivim.

The two, a man and a woman, were brought to Ziv Medical Center in Safed with light injuries, according to an initial assessment, the hospital said.

Both are civilians, though the border area has been largely evacuated.

Moments after the attack on Avivim and Dovev, a Home Front Command alert warned residents of other towns in the Upper Galilee of a suspected enemy drone infiltration.

A video showed what appears to be an interceptor missile exploding in the sky over the northern city of Safed, after the drone infiltration alert sounded in communities closer to the Lebanese border. READ MORE
