Besides the Western Galilee, incoming air raid sirens also sounded in the Central and Upper Galilee, as well as Wadi Ara, with shelter-in-place orders issued for dozens of localities across northern Israel.
The IDF said that approximately 30 rockets were launched from Lebanon in the attack, with several rocket impacts detected.
Besides the strike on Kibbutz Sa'ar, Israel Police reported that one person sustained minor injuries from shrapnel in Shfaram. Additionally, rockets and rocket fragments landed in Bir al-Maksur in the Lower Galilee, causing damage to livestock and sparking a fire.
Police and bomb disposal units are working to secure the areas, and authorities have urged the public to stay clear of the impact sites and follow police instructions.
Later, incoming air raid alerts were issued for the northern city of Kiryat Shomna and the towns of Kfar Blum, Lehavot Habashan and Manara in the Galilee Panhandle.
