Rockets slam into Kiryat Shmona building, sidewalk

Dozens of rockets were fired at Kiryat Shmona in a late night volley, the city says, with at least two impacting inside the city and causing damage.

There are no injuries, a spokesperson for the largely evacuated city says.

One rocket scored a direct hit on an unspecified building, while another landed on a sidewalk. “There is damage to the building, to property, to infrastructure and to a parked car,” the city says.

Crews are currently scanning the city to find if there were any more impacts, but are impeded somewhat by the late-night darkness, the spokesperson says.

The attack was the second to target the city in hours.

Hezbollah claims the attack, saying it fired “intense volleys” at the city to avenge an Israeli strike in Lebanon that Beirut said killed three emergency workers.
