Hezbollah Launches Rocket Barrage at Northern Israel

Hezbollah said the rockets were retaliation for Israeli ceasefire violations as Israel expanded strikes that Lebanon’s civil defense said killed 254 people.

  • On Thursday, Hezbollah fired rockets at the Manara settlement in northern Israel, stating the attack was "in defense of Lebanon" in response to what it described as Israeli ceasefire violations.
  • Israel launched its biggest attack of the war on Wednesday, April 8, targeting more than 100 military sites across Beirut, the Bekaa Valley, and southern Lebanon within ten minutes.
  • A subsequent toll indicated 254 fatalities and 1,150 injuries across Lebanon, while more than 1.2 million people have been displaced by the ongoing campaign.
  • The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps warned of a "regret-inducing response" to the attacks, while Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian emphasized that a Lebanon ceasefire remains essential to Iran's agreement with the United States.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed Lebanon was excluded from the ceasefire with Iran, a position echoed by Vice President Vance despite Hezbollah's assertion that it was included in the agreement.
