Rocket Attack from Lebanon Injures Eleven in Central Israel
In a significant escalation of hostilities, a rocket launched from Lebanon struck the central Israeli town of Tira early Saturday morning, injuring eleven individuals, according to the Israeli Ambulance Service. The attack has heightened tensions in the region, with the Israeli army confirming the detection of three missiles aimed at Tel Aviv and its surroundings. While some of the missiles were intercepted, the exact details of the incident are still under investigation.
This incident follows a series of violent confrontations between Israeli forces and Hezbollah, which have intensified in recent weeks. The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reported that sirens were activated in various central Israeli areas as a precautionary measure against the rocket fire. In response to the ongoing violence, the Lebanese Ministry of Health reported that Israeli airstrikes had resulted in the deaths of 52 people in eastern Lebanon on Friday, amidst continued military operations in the region.
