Several fires broke out in Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories as a result of a salvo of rockets fired by Hezbollah targeting the Israeli Ayelet HaShahar settlement near occupied Safad. 

Warning sirens were sounded several settlements and the city of Safad in northern occupied Palestine at around 12:00 pm (local time), including the occupied city of Safad and the town of Biriyeh, as well as the settlements of Amuka, Mishmar HaYarden, Ayelet HaShahar, and Alma. 

Israeli media outlets reported that rockets impacting the areas in the upper al-Jalil caused wide-ranging fires to break out. It is worth noting that Israeli settlers in these areas are yet to be evacuated by Israeli authorities. 

Tens of thousands rushed to bomb shelters on Saturday noon, while the local council in the area urged Israelis in settlements yet to be evacuated to reduce their movements and stay near bunkers and designated safe areas. Israeli media outlets also pointed out that settlers in the North "are wondering how long this situation will continue, as normal life is currently paralyzed."

Hezbollah responds to Israeli aggression, supports Palestinian people 

On Saturday, the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah conducted a series of operations in support of the Palestinian people and in response to Israeli aggressions on Lebanese territories. 

In an initial operation on Saturday, Hezbollah responded to an Israeli aggression on the Lebanese town of Kfour in the al-Nabatiyeh governorate. Israeli occupation forces struck a residential area in the Kfour Valley, which martyred 10 people and injured another five civilians, most of whom are Syrian nationals. 

Hezbollah fired salvos of Grad-type rocket artillery shells at the Ayelet HaShahar settlement in Israeli-occupied northern Palestinian territories. This is the first time that Hezbollah has targeted the settlement since it launched its military support campaign on October 8, 2023. 

The Resistance also launched two FPV drones toward the Israeli al-Marj military site. The miniature explosive-laden drones are a position manned by Israeli occupation troops, killing and injuring those present at the point of the attack. 

Hezbollah's Military Media Unit said that the attack was executed at 11:15 am (local time). 

The Resistance also attacked the al-Summaqah military site in the Israeli-occupied Lebanese Kfar Chouba Hills, dealing hits to the intended targets. Artillery units launched a simultaneous attack on the Roueisat al-Aalam military site at 5:00 pm. 

20 minutes later, Hezbollah's artillery units targeted the Hadab Yaroun military site and dealt direct hits to the intended targets.
