BEIRUT/JERUSALEM (Worthy News) – Sirens wailed across Tel Aviv and elsewhere in central Israel late Monday as Hezbollah fired at least five rockets from Lebanon toward the Jewish nation, shortly after Israel announced it hit Hezbollah’s intelligence center in Beirut.
Footage reviewed by Worthy News showed incoming rockets and blasts reverberating throughout the area.
“Tomorrow marks a year since Hezbollah dragged the region into a multi-front war and began their constant attacks on Israeli civilians. Less than an hour until October 8, Hezbollah launched a number of projectiles toward central Israel,” the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.
As sirens blared in Tel Aviv, Israel’s second-largest city, authorities warned residents to seek shelter as at least two explosions were heard in the central area of the city.
The IDF said the sirens in central Israel followed the identification of “five projectiles” launched into the country from Lebanon.
It added that the air force intercepted some, and the rest fell in open areas. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
The attacks came after the IDF said it struck Hezbollah’s intelligence center in Beirut after issuing “evacuation orders” for the Lebanese capital’s neighborhoods of Burj al-Barajneh and Hadath.
70 TARGETS
It was one of 70 Hezbollah targets in Lebanon over the last day, the Israeli military said.
It came amid mounting concerns about the death toll caused by the clashes with Lebanon’s Health Ministry saying Monday that an Israeli strike in the country’s south killed at least ten firefighters.
Israel says it tries to avoid civilian casualties but accuses Hezbollah and its ally Hamas of using civilians as “human shields.”
Hamas also attacked Israel with rockets earlier Monday and said it struck Israeli forces in different parts of Gaza.
The Israeli military said it launched a wave of artillery and airstrikes overnight and into Monday to thwart what it called “an imminent attack.”
It said it targeted Hamas launch posts and underground militant infrastructure.
The fighting on the anniversary underscored the resilience of Hezbollah and Hamas, both Iran-backed proxies designated as terrorist organizations by Israel and most of its allies.
OCTOBER 7 MEMORIAL
Their rockets entered Israel as the nation was remembering that Hamas-led Islamic fighters blew holes in Israel’s security fence and stormed into nearby army bases and farming communities in a surprise attack one year ago.
They killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducted another 250. They are still holding about 100 captives inside Gaza, a third of whom are believed to be dead
The war triggered by these events killed about 42,000 Palestinians in Gaza, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. Israel says at least 17,000 of those killed are Hamas fighters.
Israel’s government has pledged to continue its battle until Hamas and Hezbollah are both unable to threaten its existence, all hostages return, and more than 60,000 displaced Israelis can go back to their homes.
