Hezbollah rockets hit house, crash on Highway 89 near Safed
Approximately 180 rockets were dismantled as the IDF struck several targets in southern Lebanon following Hezbollah's attack, the military reported.
A house was directly hit by a Hezbollah rocket in Keitiya near Safed after dozens of rockets were launched against the North on Saturday afternoon, Walla reported.
Additionally, a rocket fired by Hezbollah crashed on Highway 89 near Safed, according to Israel Police. Shortly after, the road was briefly blocked to traffic.
The IDF later reported that 90 rockets were seen crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory.
Home Front Command later instructed residents in several localities in the western Galilee to stay close to bomb shelters and limit movement within their towns. These localities include Rosh Hanikra, Shlomi, Hanita, Betzet, Matzuva, Liman, Mishmar Ayalon, Adamit, and Arab el-Aramsha. These instructions have since been lifted.
Dozens of missiles were fired into the Galilee, ten of which were fired into Kiryat Shmona, according to the IDF. Ten fire teams have begun working to put out several fires that broke out in the Biriya Forest.
Fires that also broke out in Beit Hillel and Gush Halav have been brought under control.
Police officers and bomb disposal units from the Northern District arrived at the sites where the rockets fell, and they are scanning to remove any materials that are dangerous to the public.
