According to the IDF, the rockets fell into the Mediterranean sea. Residents of the northern-Israeli town Shlomi heard the sound of the booms.

No sirens were sounded in Israeli territory, according to Home Front Command protocols.

A Palestinian terrorist group south of Tyre was likely behind the rocket fire and had been arrested by Lebanese security forces, according to MTV Lebanon.
