Hezbollah launched some 50 rockets at northern Israel from Lebanon overnight Saturday.

Some 20 projectiles were launched at around 1 a.m. and 2:30 a.m. at the area of Kiryat Shmona, according to the Israel Defense Forces. Most were intercepted, though a few impacts were identified. No injuries were reported, according to the military.

At around 5:35 a.m., the Iranian terror proxy fired another 30 rockets at the Upper Galilee, with the IDF’s aerial defense array shooting down several and the rest falling in open areas. No injuries were reported in that barrage.

Several Hezbollah drones also crossed from Lebanon into the Upper Galilee on Saturday evening, with several impacts identified and no injuries reported.
