Israel army claims 100 rockets fired from Lebanon within hours

The Israeli military said more than 100 projectiles were fired from Lebanon early Sunday, with fire services working to put out blazes sparked by falling munitions in Israel’s north.

Israeli forces have exchanged regular fire with Lebanese group Hezbollah throughout the Gaza war, but the cross-border violence has intensified in recent days.

The military said that “approximately 20 projectiles were identified crossing from Lebanon” shortly before 5:00 am (0200 GMT), followed by a barrage of “approximately 85 projectiles” launched from Lebanon after 6:00 am (0300 GMT).
