JAKARTA - The Israeli military said it identified about 20 rocket launches from Lebanon into Israeli territory. A total of 120 rockets have been aimed at Israel so far.

The rocket was directed to the Krayot area near Haifa, in northern Israel, where the siren sounded.

Minutes later, about 10 projectile launches across Israel's border area in Kiryat Shmona, hit the northern city.

The 'falling projectiles have been identified,' the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said.

The attack on Kiryat Shmona sparked a fire in a garage that was being extinguished by eight firefighters, according to Yair Eliyakim, head of the fire brigade in northern Israel.

Footage shared by the city government Kiryat Shmona and emergency services showed buildings and cars on fire as firefighters tried to extinguish them.

In one of the videos, a hole appears on the sidewalk after being hit by a rocket or part of a projectile.

"The rocket is still deep (trotoars)," said a man who recorded the damage.
