Israel's Home Front Command issued a precautionary alert for northern communities over launches from Lebanon, and the military said air defences intercepted a Hezbollah rocket fired at troops in south Lebanon; the launch triggered an early warning in the Kiryat Shmona area but no sirens.
Why it matters
Hezbollah kept firing at Israeli forces inside Lebanon as the U.S. and Iran traded strikes that night.
