Hezbollah rockets wound several, damage property in 80-rocket barrage

Around seven Israelis were wounded over the course of Monday, including several during an intense bombardment of around 90 rockets on the North by Hezbollah on Monday afternoon, pushing the total number of rockets fired by the Lebanese terror group to around 175 for the day.

Hezbollah’s approximately 90 rocket barrage targeted Haifa and its bayside suburbs, according to an IDF statement.

They later reported that the Israeli air force and artillery batteries targeted a rocket launcher from which rockets were launched toward several areas in northern Israel. The IDF said on X/Twitter that it will continue defending its civilians against “Hezbollah’s aggression.”

A 17-year-old boy was lightly wounded by shrapnel in Kiryat Ata, Magen David Adom reported, and was taken to Rambam Hospital with injuries from a glass shard as he was on his way to the shelter.

MDA also treated a number of other injured people, including a 52-year-old man who was moderately injured by shrapnel in his back, a 55-year-old man who was injured in various limbs on his way to the shelter, and a 77-year-old who was injured by shards of glass striking his head and limbs.

27-year-old woman was moderately injured and a 35-year-old man and a 1-year-old girl were in good condition after they were hit by shrapnel following a rocket impact in the northern Arab town of Bi’ina just after noon.

Shrapnel from another rocket wounded three people in the northern Arab town of Bi’ina. The injured persons were: a 27-year-old woman, in moderate condition, a 35-year-old man whose condition was unclear, and and a one-year-old baby who was in relatively stable condition.

Several of the rockets which directly hit civilian areas also caused significant damaging to property, according to the police and the IDF, including Karmiel.

Ballistic missile launch

Lebanese Hezbollah-affiliated network “Al Maydeen” claimed that Hezbollah launched two ballistic missiles during the attack.
