Jerusalem, 21 April, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Hezbollah launched several rockets toward Israeli troops operating south of the Forward Defense Line near Rab Thalathin in Southern Lebanon, the Israel Defense Forces said.

The military responded by striking the launcher used in the attack.

The IDF added that sirens in the northern Israeli communities of Kfar Yuval and Ma’ayan Baruch were likely triggered by the interception of an aerial drone launched from Lebanon before it crossed into Israeli territory.

The IDF said the incidents constitute a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.
