Rocket sirens sounded in the northern border communities of Manara and Kiryat Shmona at 18:55. At 19:00, a fall was reported in Kiryat Shmona. Shortly afterward, at least one interception was observed over the city, according to reports. The IDF has not yet issued a statement.
Rocket alert sirens activated at 18:55 in Manara, a northern kibbutz on the frontline, and minutes later in the adjacent city of Kiryat Shmona. The typical 15-second alert window was activated for both communities, which have faced near-daily barrages from Hezbollah and allied factions since the escalation beginning June 7.
At 19:00, a preliminary report indicated a fall in Kiryat Shmona; details on the impact site and potential casualties have not yet been published. At 19:01, a desk-reviewed report reported at least one interception observed over the city. The IDF has not confirmed the interception or the fall.
The events follow a pattern of daily rocket and drone attacks on the Upper Galilee since the June 7 IDF strike in Beirut and the subsequent Iranian missile barrage. The Zioneer previously reported interceptions over Metula on June 13 and a drone downing in the same area.
No official statement from the Home Front Command or the military has been issued regarding this incident as of 19:03 Jerusalem.
