The operation of air defense in the sky over Tel Aviv during the repulsion of the Iranian attack
Rocket attacks began around 8:00 PM. In connection with this, an air raid alert was declared in the northern and central regions of Israel. Sirens also sounded in Haifa, warning of drone launches. According to preliminary reports, at least two people were injured as a result of the shelling.
In response, Hezbollah issued a statement claiming that its targets were military facilities in Israel and settlements within a five-kilometer radius of the border with Lebanon. The group urged local residents to evacuate.
This rocket attack by Hezbollah turned out to be the most extensive since the beginning of military actions by Israel and the United States against Iran, in which the Lebanese group sides with Tehran.

Shortly before Hezbollah began its attack, the IDF reported conducting airstrikes on the group's positions in Beirut. In particular, strikes were carried out in the Dahieh area, which is a stronghold of Hezbollah. Israeli military officials claim that as a result of these attacks, 10 headquarters of the Shiite movement and launch-ready installations were destroyed.
Local residents published videos capturing explosions and smoke rising from various sites in the city.
After the rocket attack from Lebanon, ballistic missiles were also launched into Israel from Iran, reportedly all of them were successfully intercepted by Israeli forces.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commented on the situation, stating that the shelling of Israel from both sides was the result of a "joint and integrated operation." However, the IDF did not confirm this information.
On the night of March 12, Israel was again targeted from Lebanese territory, this time long-range missiles were used. Sirens were activated in Tel Aviv and its surroundings. In addition, Iran also launched another ballistic missile at central Israel, to which the IDF responded with strikes on IRGC facilities in Tehran.
