The IDF has released footage of its mostly successful interceptions of Hezbollah rocket fire towards the north and beyond. Watch:
"The Air Force is ready on the defensive and offensive."
During the night and morning hours (Saturday/Sunday), some 150 rockets, cruise missiles and drones were launched towards the State of Israel, most of them towards the north of the country.
The IDF aerial defense in all its layers prevented a significant hit to the rear with high rates of interception, aside from a few cases of direct hits and interception fragments in the rear.
