The Israeli army announced – today, Monday – that it had monitored the launching of 20 missiles from Lebanon towards the Western Galilee region in northern Israel, confirming that some of them were intercepted and others fell in open areas. Meanwhile, Hezbollah said that in one day, it launched 350 missiles towards Israel, including 17 at Tel Aviv, causing about 4 million Israelis to enter shelters.
The Al Jazeera correspondent also said that 8 missiles were launched from southern Lebanon towards the occupied Syrian Golan, and the Israeli Home Front indicated that sirens sounded in several towns north of the Golan after the missile launch was detected.
Meanwhile, Israeli raids were renewed on the southern suburb of Beirut, targeting buildings in Haret Hreik.
Last night, Israeli warplanes intensified their raids on large areas in the suburb, and also targeted several towns in southern Lebanon.

The party said that it bombed the Sharaga base, the administrative headquarters of the brigade’s command, north of the city of Akko.
