The Lebanese terror group Hezbollah once again raised the intensity of their attacks beginning on Sunday, firing over 100 rockets at northern Israel and hitting dozens of homes, according to Israeli reports.
On Sunday morning, the terror group launched several heavy barrages toward the city of Kiryat Shmona, whose residents have been evacuated since Hezbollah started its near-daily attacks in support of Hamas last October.
Three Israelis were lightly wounded by the rockets that hit dozens of buildings, vehicles – including an ambulance – and critical infrastructure, causing electricity blackouts for several hours.
The IDF added that it had detected at least one rocket launch that fell inside Lebanese territory.
On Monday morning, the terrorists launched a salvo of some 30 rockets at an IDF base on the Golan Heights, and later launched a drone aimed at the town of Metula, following the IDF’s retaliation earlier in the night.
The Israeli Air Force struck a military compound of Hezbollah in the Baalbek area overnight, around 100 kilometers (about 62 miles) deep inside Lebanon, while striking additional targets across southern Lebanon in multiple waves since Sunday morning.
Hezbollah’s rocket attack on Kiryat Shmona on Sunday was one of the most intense since the war began, causing extensive damage throughout the city.
“The ground shook from the heavy fire,” some of the few remaining residents told the Ynet news outlet.
