Israeli media reported earlier today that 34 rockets were launched from southern Lebanon toward Northern occupied Palestine, adding that 25 were intercepted by the Iron Dome, 5 hit occupation settlements, while it is still unknown where the remaining four landed.
Israeli media said security estimates reveal that this a Palestinian retaliation to the attacks and assaults on worshippers in Al-Aqsa Mosque.
