– Over 100 Rockets Fired On Haifa In Another Record As Israel Says Nasrallah’s Successor Dead:
Israel’s northern port city of Haifa has for the second consecutive day been targeted by a record number of Hezbollah missiles.
The last few hours have witnessed waves of rocket barrages – with the last being twenty sent – bringing the total number of projectiles fired to over 100 on the northern metropolis in only half a day period.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that while many were intercepted, other rocket impacts were confirmed, with damage caused to several homes, and a 70-year old woman wounded by shrapnel.
A barrage of an initial 85 missiles were launched, followed by the remainder 20. Sunday into Monday also saw dozens fired, with a restaurant, infrastructure, and homes getting hit.
Of Tuesday’s new attacks regional media is detailing that missiles targeted the area of “Haifa Bay, Israel’s main northern metropolis, was the largest the city had been exposed to since hostilities between the Lebanese group and Israel began.”
“Israel’s Channel 12 news outlet said at least five rockets fell on the city, and the mayor of Haifa reported that a building in the Haifa Bay area was hit,” Al Jazeera has noted.
The IDF has since then said an air force drone struck rocket launchers used by Hezbollah to mount some of the Haifa attacks. South Lebanon has continued to be an area of intense fighting, and Beirut has still been getting pounded with airstrikes.
