Damages in 'Shlomi' after targeted by projectiles from Lebanon

Earlier in the day, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in southern Lebanon confirmed that an Israeli drone had launched two raids on the outskirts of the town of Maroun al-Ras.

For its part, Israeli media reported that a projectile was launched from Lebanon, towards the Israeli-occupied settlement of "Shlomi".

Also this morning, Hezbollah fighters reportedly fired an anti-armor missile at a house in "Shlomi", causing material damage.

In turn, the spokesperson for the "Shlomi" Council announced that one of the missiles launched had exploded near a building and caused damage to the property, noting that sirens had not been activated upon the launch of the anti-armor missile.

In turn, the Chairman of the "Shlomi" Council, Gabi Numan, said that this incident was "very dangerous", stressing that this morning's missile towards the settlement "demonstrates the great danger" stemming from the ongoing situation across the north.

The problem in the north is complicated, as acknowledged by former Israeli "National Security Council" Chairman Giora Eiland, and the entity is at a strategic loss as long as the northern settlers cannot return to their residences.

Hundreds of Israeli settlers protest the situation in the north

Hundreds of settlers from the Israeli-occupied Palestinian north demonstrated in protest against the situation along the border with Lebanon, noting that "the government has lost the north," according to the Israeli news website Haaretz.

Israeli media reported settlers pointing fingers at the Israeli government and its leadership saying "He who abandoned the South will not save the North."

Israeli settlers find themselves devoid of the much-promised Israeli occupation's security, reported Haaretz, as they confess, "We are all refugees" and that "This is where the line of lawlessness passes."

In turn, Israeli Channel 12's correspondent reported that the roads in the North remain closed, at all times, for fear of Hezbollah's rockets. The correspondent underscored that the North is collapsing and that the daily routine of Israeli settlers there has become more complicated, stressing that the authorities there are very angry about the situation.
