ALBAWABA- In a significant escalation, Hezbollah has intensified its attacks on Israeli settlements. Videos circulating online show large fires engulfing Kiryat Shmona. According to Yedioth Ahronoth, residents of Kiryat Shmona have been evacuated due to the fires caused by missile strikes from Lebanon. Over 30 missiles were launched towards the occupied Syrian Golan Heights.
Hezbollah claimed responsibility for an attack south of Liman with drones, some of which fell in Nahariya, causing damage. They also reported bombing Israeli artillery positions in Zaoura with dozens of Katyusha rockets.
Israel Hayom reported that 14 firefighting teams have been working for over five hours to control the fires in the Upper Galilee.
Yedioth Ahronoth noted that efforts are now focused on extinguishing fires in Margaliot and Kiryat Shmona fields after evacuating residents.
The Israeli army reported that two explosive drones launched from Lebanon exploded in the Metula and Mount Naftali areas in the Upper Galilee.
Israeli media reported sirens sounding in "Shtoula" and "Natoa" on the northern border with Lebanon. Direct fire from Lebanon hit targets in the Western Galilee and the Raheb site. Hezbollah stated they targeted Israeli soldiers in the Shtoula Forest with artillery shells.
In the southern Golan region, sirens sounded fearing the entry of a drone, marking the first siren alarm in Hamat Gader since the outbreak of the conflict.
The Israeli media emphasized the severity of the situation, stating, "The north is burning, and this is not propaganda." In retaliation, Israel launched a raid on the town of Naqoura, south of Lebanon.
