Hezbollah launched dozens of rockets at Israeli positions in response to Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon, marking one of its largest assaults since the Gaza conflict began. The Iran-aligned group targeted artillery positions in northern Israel and the occupied Golan Heights. Sirens blared in Upper Galilee as air defense systems engaged the incoming rockets. The Israeli military confirmed 40 launches, some intercepted, while others hit open areas. Al Jazeera correspondent Rory Challands described it as one of the biggest barrages in the Gaza conflict. The situation remains tense as tensions escalate between Hezbollah and Israel.
