The Islamic Resistance also launched rockets at Roueissat al-Alam site in the Kfar Chouba hills and the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms in the eastern sector of South Lebanon. The Resistance also directly hit the Israeli “Mitat” Barracks (opposite the town of Rmeish).

Israeli media said two Israeli soldiers were injured in the operation conducted on “Mitat” as a result of a rocket fired from Lebanon toward the barracks stationed in Upper al-Jalil.

In this context, Israeli media reported that several roads were closed in the north, including the southern “Beit Hillel” junction and the “Kiryat Shmona” settlement junction, claiming that “a hostile aircraft infiltrated Israeli airspace, coming from Lebanon.”

Israeli media reported that settlements on the northern border were evacuated, a first since "Israel's establishment" in 1948.

This comes as Israeli occupation authorities evacuated new settlements in northern occupied Palestine.
