Hezbollah says it fired rockets at northern Israel

Hezbollah has fired dozens of rockets towards northern Israel, the group says in a statement.

It says military bases and logistics warehouses were targeted with "dozens" of missiles, in response to Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon.

In a separate statement, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) says at least 35 rockets were fired from Lebanon and several impacts identified.

A man in his 50s was lightly wounded by shrapnel in the Lower Galilee region, the Israeli military says.

It adds that several rockets were shot down by air defences while others made impact in open areas close to the community of Ami’ad.
