Rocket sirens blare all across Israel

Rocket alerts sounded in the north and south of Israel in the past 45 minutes on Saturday morning as a barrage of fire was directed at communities along the borders of Lebanon and Gaza, Israeli media reported.

Incoming rocket fire was detected in several communities near the Lebanon border, including Misgav Am, Margaliot and Arab al-Aramshe. The alerts come after Israeli forces have repeatedly clashed with the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah amid ongoing fighting with Hamas to the south.

The Israel Defense Forces said a number of mortars and anti-tank missiles were launched from Lebanese territory towards IDF posts in Israel and fell in open areas. The military said IDF tanks and artillery responded by firing at the sources of the missiles and targeting Hezbollah military infrastructure in Lebanon. 

Rocket sirens also blared in the southern city of Beersheba and in the coastal city of Ashkelon. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage. IDF said it is reviewing the alerts.
