Jerusalem: Air raid sirens sounded in central Israel Tuesday and an AFP journalist heard explosions in the city of Tel Aviv, with the military saying projectiles had been fired from Lebanon.

“Sirens sounded in central Israel following projectile launches that crossed from Lebanon,” the military said in a statement.

Police said one projectile hit a road near the central town of Kfar Kassen, wounding a man who was struck by shrapnel and treated by emergency services.

The cross-border fire from Lebanon came as Israel launched what it called limited ground operations in southern Lebanon and also targeted south Beirut, Damascus and Gaza amid a flurry of fighting.

Hezbollah targets Israeli military base near Tel Aviv

Lebanese militant group Hezbollah on Tuesday said it had targeted the Israeli military intelligence base of Glilot near Tel Aviv.

The Iran-backed group “launched salvoes of Fadi 4 rockets at the Glilot base of the military intelligence’s unit 8200 and the Mossad headquarters located on the outskirts of Tel Aviv,” it said in a statement.

Early Tuesday, Israel’s military said its forces, backed by air strikes and artillery, carried out “targeted ground raids” on Hezbollah positions in settlements along the border.

It said the targets posed an “immediate threat” to northern Israeli communities, and warned Lebanese civilians against driving in a southern zone along the border.

Residents told to evacuate

The military also called on residents in more than 20 areas in southern Lebanon to evacuate, hours after launching ground operations across the border.

“The IDF (Israeli military) does not want to harm you, and for your own safety you must evacuate your homes immediately. Anyone who is near Hezbollah members, installations and combat equipment is putting his life in danger,” army spokesman Avichay Adraee said on X.
