Fire breaks out in northern Israel after rocket attack from Lebanon
Hezbollah says it fired barrage of drones into Upper Galilee in northern Israel
By Abdelraouf Arnaout
JERUSALEM (AA) - A fire broke out in Upper Galilee in northern Israel following the interception of a barrage of rockets launched from Lebanon, according to Israeli media on Tuesday.
Israeli Channel 12 reported that a fire erupted in an open area in Upper Galilee due to a fragment falling during the interception of rockets launched from Lebanon.
The blaze, however, was extinguished by five firefighting teams, the broadcaster said.
Israeli media outlets confirmed explosions resulting from the interception of the rockets.
Early Tuesday, the Lebanese group Hezbollah said that it had launched a barrage of drones on the headquarters of the 91st Division in Nahal Gershom in Upper Galilee.
Tensions have soared along Lebanon's border with Israel amid cross-border attacks between Hezbollah and Israeli forces as Tel Aviv pressed ahead with its deadly offensive on the Gaza Strip, which has killed more than 37,600 people since last Oct. 7.
Hezbollah has linked the cessation of its attacks on Israel to the end of Tel Aviv’s onslaught on Gaza.
