Two people were killed when a Hezbollah rocket scored a direct hit on a building in Nahariya, Nov. 12, 2024

Two men in their forties were killed late Tuesday afternoon in a direct hit by a Hezbollah rocket during an attack on Nahariya and surrounds. At least two other people were wounded in the barrage.

A massive barrage of at least 10 mid-range rockets was fired by the Iranian-backed Lebanese terrorist army at northwestern Israeli communities, including Nahariya, Akko, Haifa and surrounds.

“Some of the projectiles were intercepted, and others landed in the area,” the IDF said.

An industrial building in the city sustained a direct hit that started a fire in the structure.

“This was a warehouse hit by a rocket. We arrived quickly at the scene, where there was significant destruction and an active fire,” Magen David Adom (MDA) EMT Dor Vaknin reported.

“We conducted medical assessments on two men who were lying unconscious and suffering from severe injuries. Unfortunately, their injuries were too severe, and after our assessments, we had to pronounce both of them deceased.”

In addition, a man and a woman who suffered from emotional shock were treated by United Hatzalah’s Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit.”

In the Kabri area, also in northern Israel, two people in their thirties were wounded in the attack. Both sustained shrapnel wounds; they were evacuated by MDA to the Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya.

The Israel Defense Forces also intercepted three long-range missiles that were fired simultaneously at central Israel.

One woman sustained minor injuries while racing for a bomb shelter in the city of Lod, near Ben Gurion International Airport.

Less than an hour earlier, a terrorist armed with a knife attempted to stab IDF reservists at a military post at the Dayr Sharaf Junction in northern Israel.

The reservists neutralized the terrorist and no Israeli injuries were reported, the IDF said.
