The Hezbollah terror group launched a flurry of rockets and explosive drones into Israel on Thursday, triggering a “non-stop alert” on Israel's warning app.
The barrage is the second major rocket attack that Hezbollah has suffered within days, and comes in an escalation after Israel killed a top Hezbollah commander, Sami Taleb Abdullah, in an airstrike this weekend.
“Hezbollah is targeting northern Israel with more rockets and drones and is on constant alert,” Fox News foreign correspondent Trey Yingst wrote Thursday.
Israel reported no injuries in the attacks on Wednesday and Thursday.

As part of the attack, Sami Taleb Abdullah, commander of Hezbollah's terrorist organization's Nasr Force, was killed. Sami Taleb Abdullah was one of Hezbollah's most senior commanders in southern Lebanon.”
