At least 34 rockets launched from Lebanon into Israel

At least 34 rockets were fired from southern Lebanon into Israel on Thursday after the Iran-backed terror group Hezbollah denounced an Israeli police raid on Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa mosque and pledged to take “all measures … to deter the enemy.”

Israeli officials say that just five of the rockets made it past the Jewish state’s Iron Dome defense system, with one injury reported — the largest attack from the north since 2006 when Hezbollah fired thousands of rockets into Israel during a 34-day conflict.

The rockets injured one man with shrapnel and one woman who was running for a bomb shelter, according to Israel’s EMS service.

The attacks on the first day of Passover are also one of the largest since August 2021, when Hezbollah fired 19 rockets into Israeli territory.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was informed of the attack and plans to meet with his high-level security cabinet, his office said.

The Israel Defense Forces have not yet formally confirmed the total number of rockets launched in Thursday’s attack.
