Hezbollah carried out its first major attack in the last 48 hours, firing a significant number of rockets towards Israel. Iron Dome missile defense systems immediately began intercepting air targets over the northern regions of the country.
Experts note that this attack could be a harbinger of further attacks. In light of Iran's recent statements about its readiness to launch direct attacks on Israel, the likelihood of an escalation of the conflict increases significantly. Iran's possible participation in hostilities could significantly complicate the already tense situation in the region.
Immediately after the start of the shelling, Israeli air defense forces brought their systems to full combat readiness. Air raid sirens sounded in the north of the country and residents were urged to remain in shelters. Despite the effectiveness of the Iron Dome, some missiles were able to reach their target.
