The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have reported that approximately 25 rockets were launched from Lebanon today morning. While some of these rockets were intercepted, others fell in open areas without causing any damage or injuries. An additional rocket was fired separately toward Kiryat Shmona, landing in the vicinity, according to military sources.
Shortly before this barrage, the IDF also intercepted two unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) launched from Lebanon. The UAVs did not cross into Israeli territory, and as a result, no warning sirens were activated.
