Hezbollah fired medium-range rockets toward areas south of Haifa on Sunday morning local time, significantly expanding the range of its attacks against Israel. Why it matters: Most of the rockets were intercepted by Israel or hit open areas but the attack signaled another escalation in the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah.

Israel on Saturday continued airstrikes against Hezbollah and its rocket launchers in southern Lebanon after killing more than a dozen terrorists on Friday.
