Interceptors have been activated in northern Israel as Hezbollah launched a barrage of rockets across the border, the Israel Defense Forces said in the early hours of Sunday.

The air attack sirens were activated at around 1:10 am in Haifa, Nazareth, Afula and the lower Galilee, according to the Jerusalem Post.

The IDF said that Hezbollah launched a total of 24 rockets in three waves, and all of them were intercepted.

One of the rockets reportedly fell in the Nazareth area. A 60-year-old man has been lightly wounded by shrapnel in the Lower Galilee, according to MDA, Israel’s emergency medical and disaster services organization.

???? This is wild! For the 4th time today Hezbollah rained Haifa and the surrounding area with medium range missiles striking multiple targets. And this is still not a response to the Israeli terrorist attacks. This is welcoming Haifa into the new rules of engagement. pic.twitter.com/XB8dNAKEiP— Hadi (@HadiNasrallah) September 22, 2024

Lebanese TV channel Al Mayadeen cited a Hezbollah spokesperson as saying that the group fired dozens Fadi-1 and Fadi-2-type rockets at Israel’s Ramat David Airbase in response to the Jewish state’s earlier airstrikes on Lebanon.

The Israeli Army Radio later confirmed that Hezbllah targeted Ramat David and said that the IDF was responding with strikes in southern Lebanon.

The barrage marks the latest round of escalation between Israel and the militant group Hezbollah, which has been carrying out cross-border attacks in solidarity with Hamas in Gaza.

The IDF said it struck around 180 Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon throughout Saturday, destroying “thousands of launcher barrels ready for immediate use against Israel civilians.” Israeli jets struck a suburb of Beirut on Friday, killing several high-ranking Hezbollah commanders. According to the Lebanese authorities, 37 people were killed.

“We will continue operating against Hezbollah until we achieve our mission: ensuring the safe return of Israel’s northern communities to their homes,” Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said on Friday.

The blasts were condemned by UN officials, as well as by Russia and China, as indiscriminate.
