Hezbollah continues to launch drones, rockets at Israeli territory

As Hezbollah continues to launch waves of drones and rockets at Israeli territory, northern residents spend most of the night in their safe rooms and bomb shelters because of the consistent fire.

At its height in fall 2024, Hezbollah was launching around 100-250 rockets and drones towards Israel per day.

On March 22, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz instructed the IDF to destroy all bridges over the Litani River.
