A rocket fired from Lebanon wounded four people in the northern city of Kiryat Shmona on Saturday, as cross-border skirmishes between Israeli forces and Hezbollah continued to flare.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service listed the victims’ conditions as light and light-to-moderate.

Several rocket impacts had caused damage, according to police.

The rocket fire came not long after a barrage of 10 projectiles was launched at the northern city, most of which were shot down by air defenses.

In other attacks during the day, the Israel Defense Forces said two suspected drones heading toward Israel were shot down by Israeli air defenses over southern Lebanon.

Rockets were also fired from Lebanon at the Zar’it, Margaliot, and Maayan Baruch areas. There were no injuries, though Hebrew media reported two houses in Margaliot sustained significant damage.

Lebanese media, meanwhile, reported an Israeli airstrike on a car between the towns of Arnoun and Kfar Tebnit in the Nabatiyeh District of southern Lebanon.

No further details were immediately available.

The IDF announced strikes on Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon, which it said were used to attack the northern communities of Zar’it and Maayan Baruch earlier Saturday.

The IDF added that a building in Ayta ash-Shab, where a Hezbollah member was operating, was also struck.

Additionally, the military said it carried out a drone strike on two Hezbollah operatives preparing to launch rockets at Israel in southern Lebanon’s Deir Mimas.

A source close to Hezbollah who requested anonymity told AFP that one of the men was a Hezbollah member and the father of a fighter who had been killed, while the second man was a member of Hezbollah ally the Amal movement. The source insisted they were “civilians, not fighters,” which was echoed by a Lebanese security source who claimed they “were filling up water from a roadside spring” when they were struck.

Hezbollah has traded almost daily fire with Israeli forces in support of Hamas since the Palestinian terror group’s October 7 onslaught against Israel triggered war in the Gaza Strip, stoking fears of a full-blown conflict in the north as well. Some of Saturday’s attacks from Lebanon followed an Israeli strike in Gaza targeting the head of Hamas’s military wing and another top commander, which Hezbollah has yet to comment on.

On Wednesday, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah said his group would accept Hamas’s decision on Gaza hostage negotiations and would stop attacks on Israel if a ceasefire were reached. A day earlier, Nasrallah met with a Hamas delegation before talks resumed in Qatar on Wednesday toward a truce-for-hostage deal in the Gaza war, now in its 10th month.

Around 60,000 residents of towns and villages along Israel’s northern border have been forced from their homes since October due to the frequent rocket and anti-tank missile attacks by Hezbollah and other terrorists in southern Lebanon.

The attacks have persisted despite constant Israeli warnings that it could launch a war to push the Hezbollah threat away from the border and return normalcy to the region, with most evacuees facing the prospect of remaining homeless for the foreseeable future.

So far, the skirmishes have resulted in 12 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 17 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.

Hezbollah has named 366 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. In Lebanon, another 66 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have been killed.
