Stunning Clips Show Israel’s Iron Dome Intercepting Massive Rocket Barrage Fired By Hezbollah

Videos emerged from the north of Israel on Tuesday showing a massive barrage of rockets being intercepted over civilian centers by the Iron Dome defense system.

The Times of Israel reported that Hezbollah, which has long been designated a terror group by the U.S., took credit for the rocket attack. Hezbollah reportedly claimed the attack on Kiryat Shmona was in response to an airstrike in southern Lebanon by the IDF the day before.

The IDF said that over 30 rockets were fired and at least one landed in the yard of a home, but no immediate damage or injuries were reported.

Times of Israel military correspondent Emanuel Fabian posted clips of the rocket interceptions lighting up the night sky over northern Israel. Kiryat Shmona is Israel’s northernmost town and has a population of around 22,000 people. Following Hamas’s devastating Oct. 7th attack on southern Israel, many towns in the north of the country were evacuated as rocket fire between Hezbollah and Israel ramped up.

Fabian reported that the IDF struck Hezbollah positions in response, “IDF said fighter jets struck a Hezbollah rocket launching position in southern Lebanon’s Taybeh, from which the terror group fired a barrage at Kiryat Shmona this evening.” He added:

Additionally, an anti-tank missile launch position in Aarab El Louaizeh, also used in attacks on Kiryat Shmona, was struck by an aircraft, the IDF says. Earlier, the IDF says it struck a building used by Hezbollah in Dibbine, and additional infrastructure in Ayta ash-Shab.
