Iranian Forces Launch 30 Rockets at Israel, Israelis Rush to Bomb Shelters

The IDF reported in a statement at about 1 am Thursday that Iranian forces fired 20 rockets at Israel on the Golan Heights, shortly after midnight late Wednesday night. Iron Dome shot down some of the rockets. The statement continued that there are no wounded and no known damage is reported.

There were reports of Syrian air defenses firing towards the border town of Quneitra. Arab sources reported that Israel Defense Forces were shelling areas near the city of Quneitra, perhaps related to reports of an IDF attack that began shortly before midnight. Arab sources claim the IDF hit a Hezbollah position, and that anti-aircraft fire was emanating from Syria.
