Hezbollah Rocket Hits Israel's Main Airport and Another Lands in a Parked Car as Group Fires 120-Missile Barrage

A Hezbollah rocket landed in Israel’s main airport on Wednesday, November 6, as the group launched waves of projectiles across the Lebanese border.  

Ben Gurion airport was struck during a blistering assault as the IDF battled to intercept the initial salvo of projectiles, the military reported.  Flights were delayed and disrupted as a result of the attack, as Hezbollah claimed it was targeting the IDF’s Tzrifin base, south of the airport.  

Debris from an intercepted rocket also hit an empty car parked in Ra’anana, some 13 miles from the airport in Tel Aviv. Sirens rang out again east of the city this afternoon after a single rocket was flagged and intercepted, according to the IDF.   

The military claimed 120 projectiles were launched from Lebanon altogether. The IDF reported ten were fired in the morning, claiming to have intercepted “most.” The Israel Airports Authority announced later that the airport was “open and working normally for arrivals and departures” again, following the initial attack.  

Hezbollah later said it had also targeted a naval base near the Israeli city of Haifa with drones and missiles, the fourth attack on the base in as many weeks. (DM / VFI News)
