Today, the terrorist organization Hezbollah fired about 30 rockets into Israel, targeting the Upper, Western and Central Galilee. At approximately 1:35 p.m. local time, alarm systems were activated, warning residents of possible danger.
According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), several missiles were successfully intercepted by air defense systems, but some of the projectiles still reached Israeli territory. As a result of the shelling near the village of Shorashim, a person in a car was injured.
Cases of shrapnel injuries were reported in Karmiel and its surrounding areas: one person suffered minor to moderate injuries and several residents panicked. MADA service personnel went to the scene, providing assistance to the victims and evacuating the injured.
In turn, a representative of Hezbollah in an interview with Lebanese radio said that they do not care that Arab citizens of Israel may be among the victims, demonstrating contempt for the consequences of their actions for civilians.
Previously, Cursor wrote that the IDF is actively fighting Hezbollah’s drone threat, having destroyed around 70% of the group’s drone stockpile.
The military estimates that Hezbollah has about 30% of its initial supply of unmanned aerial vehicles left, which still poses a threat to Israeli security. Since the beginning of the conflict, around 1,300 drones have been launched towards Israel, of which the IDF intercepted around 82%, preventing their attacks.
To undermine Hezbollah’s military potential, the IDF is attacking key infrastructure facilities. In recent months, 54 UAV warehouses, 24 missile launch sites, 8 production workshops and 7 arsenals were attacked, significantly reducing the capabilities of the militants.
The military also achieved significant success by eliminating the commander of Hezbollah unit 127, responsible for drone operations. This elimination, according to the IDF, weakened Hezbollah’s command capabilities and reduced the group’s readiness to carry out new attacks. However, combating militants operating drones remains a challenge, and only about 10% of the personnel responsible for drone strikes have been removed so far.
