Hezbollah launched approximately 70 rockets at northern Israel, prompting Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon, resulting in casualties and significant humanitarian impacts.


On November 9, 2024, tensions escalated between Israel and Hezbollah as approximately 70 rockets were launched from Lebanon targeting various locations in northern Israel, including Acre, Kiryat Bialik, and the Galilee region. In response, Israeli air raid sirens were activated in central Israel following the infiltration of a drone, which the Israeli army was actively pursuing. Reports indicate that some rockets were intercepted, while others landed in open areas, causing no casualties but raising alarm among residents.

Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the missile attacks, specifically targeting military sites such as the Zevulon military industries base and settlements in northern Israel. The group also reported successfully shooting down an Israeli 'Hermes 450' drone in southern Lebanon, which led to further Israeli airstrikes in the region.

The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported that Israeli airstrikes on the coastal city of Tyre resulted in the deaths of seven people, including two children, and approximately 50 injuries. The ongoing conflict has had severe humanitarian impacts, with reports indicating a total of 3,117 deaths and 13,888 injuries since the beginning of hostilities, alongside significant displacement affecting around 1.4 million people.
