A Hezbollah rocket hit the city of Kiryat Shmona on Monday afternoon, injuring two people and causing damage at four impact sites across the city.

According to emergency responders, a man in his 50s was seriously wounded after he was hit in the face by shrapnel at one of the impact sites, near a bus. He was evacuated via helicopter to Rambam Hospital in Haifa.

A man in his 80s who was lightly injured by shrapnel was evacuated by an MDA ambulance to Ziv Medical Center in Tzfas.

The strike occurred amid non-stop Hezbollah rocket fire at the Galil on Monday, with five sirens blaring within an hour. Sirens continued to blare as emergency rescue forces were tending to the wounded.

An MDA medic said, “We provided medical treatment to a 50-year-old man, including bandaging and stopping the bleeding, and we are continuing to check that there are no additional casualties in the area. When a siren is heard, the public must follow Home Front Command instructions and enter a protected space—it saves lives.”
