Rocket Barrage from Lebanon Leaves Woman Dead, Several Injured in Northern Israel

Mar 24, 2026·2 min read

A large-scale rocket attack from Lebanon struck northern Israel on Tuesday evening, leaving one woman dead and several others wounded, as emergency and security teams responded across multiple impact sites.

A total of 38 rockets were fired toward northern communities, with several landing near the Machaneyim Junction area. A woman at the scene sustained critical injuries from the blasts and flying shrapnel, while two others were hurt lightly.

Emergency responders from Magen David Adom rushed to the location and began administering urgent medical care to the critically wounded woman. Despite their efforts, she was later pronounced dead at the scene.

Security personnel and rescue teams continued to comb through the affected areas, checking for additional victims and assessing potential damage caused by the heavy barrage.

In a separate earlier incident, a missile launched from Iran struck in the south, seriously injuring a doctor from the Bedouin community and causing lighter injuries to his wife and two young children.

The injured man, who works at Soroka Hospital, had just returned home after an extended shift and had gone to rest when the missile struck.

Magen David Adom teams treated the injured family members at the scene before transporting them to Soroka Hospital in Be’er Sheva. Warning sirens sounded across the Negev region and areas surrounding Gaza during the attack.
