Hezbollah fired some 75 rockets from Lebanon at northern Israel on Tuesday in barrages in the morning and early afternoon, according to the Israel Defense Forces, which said that some of the launches were intercepted while the rest hit open areas.

There were no injuries reported in the attacks on the Upper Galilee, Western Galilee and the Golan Heights. The IDF said some of the rocket impacts sparked fires in open areas in the Upper Galilee, and that firefighters were working to extinguish them.

The army said it struck one of the launchers shortly after the rocket fire. Sirens sounded in multiple northern border communities amid the attacks.

The Iran-backed terror group said the barrages targeted military bases in response to IDF strikes on Hezbollah arms depots deep inside Lebanon’s eastern Bekaa Valley late Monday, and the killing of a prominent operative earlier in the day.

Earlier Monday, an Israeli military NCO was killed in an explosive drone attack on northern Israel.

Israeli strikes deep inside Lebanon are relatively rare and generally come in response to deadly attacks. Nabi Chit, where one of the strikes in Baalbek reportedly took place, is some 70 kilometers (43 miles) from the Israeli border.

The IDF also carried out a drone strike on Monday night in southern Lebanon’s Deir Qanoun, near Tyre, killing a Hezbollah operative named as Hussein Suleiman. The IDF identified Suleiman as a prominent member of Hezbollah’s rocket and missile unit.

A Lebanese media report on Monday claimed that Hezbollah’s threatened retaliatory attack for the killing of top commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut last month could be back on track after its ally Hamas appeared to reject truce terms aimed at ending fighting in Gaza.

Iran has also threatened a major assault on the Jewish state following the killing of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in an attack blamed on Israel. It too has indicated its next steps could depend on the results of the Gaza ceasefire talks.

Also Monday night, the IDF carried out strikes on a pair of Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon’s Mansouri and Taybeh that were primed for “immediate” launch at Israel.

Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis since October 8, with the group saying it is doing so to support Gaza amid the war against the Hamas terror group there.

So far, the skirmishes have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 19 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.

Hezbollah has named 415 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. In Lebanon, another 72 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have been killed.
