On Tuesday, March 24, 2026, a woman in her 30s was killed and two others were slightly injured after Hezbollah launched a barrage of approximately 30 rockets against the Rosh Pina region in northern Israel
The attack was part of a nearly constant series of aggressions that have been occurring amidst escalating fighting between Israel and the Lebanese group.
The rocket that caused the fatality landed near the Mahanayim junction, close to Rosh Pina.
Magen David Adom (Israeli emergency services) teams found the woman unconscious in a ditch by the roadside, with severe shrapnel wounds.
Paramedics performed all procedures, but she showed no vital signs and was pronounced dead at the scene.
One of the rescuers, Oren Ne’eman, described the scene as extremely difficult.
Two other people suffered minor injuries from shrapnel.
One of them, a man with a head injury, told medics that he had stopped his car upon hearing the warning sirens and was hit when a projectile exploded nearby.
Almost simultaneously, Iran fired a salvo of ballistic missiles at Israel-one of at least 12 rounds launched throughout the day.
One of these missiles landed in the northern city of Safed, slightly injuring two people due to glass shards.
They received treatment but did not require hospitalization.
The Hezbollah attack occurred while the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) were conducting operations in the region.
In recent weeks, since the beginning of March, the Lebanese group has been firing an average of about 150 rockets per day.
In response, Israel has carried out hundreds of airstrikes in Lebanon, hitting more than 2,000 targets and eliminating about 600 Hezbollah members, including more than 220 from the elite Radwan force.
Among recent Israeli actions, a naval attack in Beirut killed Muhammad Ali Kourani, a member of the Iranian Quds Force who was involved in preparing terrorist attacks.
In another operation, in southern Lebanon, five Hezbollah anti-tank missile operators were killed.
Faced with the escalation, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that Israel will maintain control of a security zone in southern Lebanon, up to the Litani River, until the Hezbollah threat is completely eliminated.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich even suggested that the border between the two countries be moved to that river.
The current conflict involves not only Hezbollah, but also Iran, which has launched missiles against Israel and suffered Israeli retaliation on its territory.
The situation remains tense, with frequent warnings in northern Israel and ongoing military operations on the Lebanese side of the border.
