Fears of a wider war are intensifying as Hezbollah launches a massive, coordinated assault on Israel’s northern front. In just 24 hours, the Iran-backed group carried out 35 attacks using rockets, missiles, and drones — marking one of the most intense escalations in recent weeks. Sirens echoed across key cities including Safed, Nahariya, and Kiryat Shmona as explosions lit up the night sky. Homes were damaged, infrastructure was hit, and fires broke out across multiple locations, pushing civilian populations into panic. While the Israel Defense Forces says many incoming threats were intercepted, the sheer scale and coordination of the barrage are raising serious concerns about the limits of Israel’s air defense systems.
