Israeli authorities further reported that one person was seriously wounded as a result of the attack.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah continued to attack the north of the Jewish State. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported that 30 launches were identified in the region that were intercepted by Israeli defense systems.

Earlier this week, Avhisai Stern, mayor of Kiryat Shmona, a city in northern Israel, commented on the arrival of envoys from U.S. President Joe Biden, who are in the region to help advance a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah. In an interview with the Israeli news portal Ynet, Stern said, "The key is not what is written in the agreement, but how it is enforced or how its implementation is guaranteed afterwards."
The mayor expressed skepticism about the current conditions, stating that he does not believe they are conducive to an agreement that would ensure enforcement.
