Rockets Fired at Israel from Lebanon

Stand for Israel  |  August 4, 2021

After a period of relative calm and respite from terrorist rockets, Israel finds herself targeted once again, this time from the north. The Times of Israel’s Emanuel Fabian reports that three rockets were launched by Palestinian terrorists in Lebanon, with the IDF responding to the attacks:

Three rockets were fired into northern Israel from Lebanon Wednesday shortly after noon, causing warning sirens to sound in the Kiryat Shmona area. Two rockets hit open areas, while the third fell short of the border.

There were no reports of casualties in the attack, though the Magen David Adom emergency medical service treated four people for anxiety attacks.

In response, the Israel Defense Forces fired artillery shells at targets in Lebanon just after the attack. Some two hours later it followed up with a second and a third round.

Please pray for God’s protection over all His people and for the peace of Jerusalem.
