[UPDATE: FALSE ALARM?] – Israel under attack from Hezbollah in Lebanon

by The Right Scoop

MAJOR UPDATE: It appears this may be more of a false alarm than anything significant at the moment.

According to the Jerusalem Post, no rocket falls nor injuries have been reported:

Israelis throughout the country were ordered to shelter in place amid a large-scale attack involving drones coming from the direction of the northern border on Wednesday evening. No injuries or rocket falls have been reported as of yet.

Shortly after the attack began, reports were received of terrorists on paragliders landing in northern Israel. Rocket alerts were issued throughout northern Israel as well, including in Haifa. Haifa’s al-Qassam Brigades said it fired a rocket toward Haifa amid the attack.

Terrorist infiltration alerts were issued in Maalot Tarshicha and Maayan Baruch in northern Israel simultaneously. Shortly afterward, an all clear was given in Maalot Tarshica.

Maalot Tarshica is right at the border of Lebanon. I am glad an all clear was given and that no injuries have been reported. Israel did respond to the missiles fired from Lebanon:

The IDF launched retaliatory strikes on a Hezbollah observation post in southern Lebanon on Wednesday after anti-tank missiles were fired from Lebanese territory at an Israeli military position on the border, the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said. Hezbollah took responsibility for the anti-tank missile fire shortly after the incident.

The attack took place near the Israeli town of Arab al-Aramshe, opposite the Lebanese village of Dhayra. The IDF did not immediately provide details on casualties.

A Lebanese security source said the powerful armed group Hezbollah fired two precision missiles into Israel, which the group considers its sworn enemy.

I’ll update you if any of this changes.

-ORIGINAL STORY-

Israel is now under attack from Hezbollah in Lebanon. There are reports of manned paragliders coming out of the north along with rockets and drones.

This would be a second front in the war to annihilate the Jews in Israel.

The IDF reported this first:
