While the Israeli military continues to take action against Hezbollah in Lebanon, there are also attacks on Israel from there again. There are a lot of people there because of the holiday Yom Kippur.
While people in Israel are celebrating the highest Jewish holiday, Yom Kippur, there have been renewed attacks from Lebanon. According to the Israeli army, rocket alarms were triggered in the coastal city of Haifa, among other places. The reason for this was two drones that were launched from the neighboring country. These were intercepted.
Sirens blared again elsewhere in northern Israel. The Israeli military said a total of around 40 projectiles had been registered from the neighboring country since the morning. There were initially no reports of injuries or damage. Hezbollah in Lebanon claimed responsibility for several attacks.
Since Friday evening, people in Israel have been celebrating Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement). Believers fast and hope for forgiveness of their sins. Television and radio stations interrupt their broadcasts. Shops, cinemas, bars and restaurants remain closed.
Apart from police cars and emergency services, no cars drive on the highest Jewish holiday. That’s why there are many people all over the country riding bicycles, e-scooters and walking on streets and even highways, including many groups of children.
Israel’s army has significantly stepped up its fight against the Shiite Hezbollah militia since September, including massive air strikes and a ground offensive in Lebanon.
