After rocket sirens sounded across central Israel on Tuesday morning, including localities such as Herzliya and Netanya, five rockets were detected crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory, the IDF reported.
Shortly after, sirens were also triggered in the Upper Galilee, as ten rockets were identified crossing from Lebanon into Israel, the IDF said. Some of the rockets were intercepted, and the rest fell in open areas.
Two crashes in open areas were detected near Kfar Yona and Ra’anana, the Israel Police stated. Police were on the ground to search the areas where crashes had been detected.
Four people were lightly wounded by glass while in a concrete building with glass windows that were shattered in the Sharon area, Magen David Adom stated.

Israel’s emergency medical service, Magen David Adom, stated that response teams are en route to search areas where crashes were reported. Response teams from the United Hatzalah rescue service also searched areas where crashes were reported.
This attack follows a Hezbollah missile barrage on Monday that wounded five people in the Ramat Gan area in central Israel and caused damage to several buildings and an empty bus nearby.
