We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon and Hamas terrorists in Gaza were busy as civilians in Israel were praying this Yom Kippur, which fell on the Sabbath.

Throughout the weekend of Yom Kippur, approximately 320 projectiles that were fired by the Hezbollah terrorist organization crossed from Lebanon into Israel, as did two rockets launched by Hamas from Gaza, both landing in open areas in Ashkelon.

In the north, Hezbollah launched rocket and suicide drone attacks until late in the evening Friday night. In one attack, a suicide drone from Lebanon struck a old age/nursing home in Herzliya, injuring one person. A second suicide drone aimed at the central Israeli city was intercepted by the Israeli Air Force and dropped into the Mediterranean sea.

During the day, heavy rocket barrages struck the Mediterranean port city of Haifa, and the ancient port city of Akko, in addition to the cities of Karmiel, Tzfat (Safed), Rosh Pina, Metulah and Kiryat Shmona, among many others spanning the north from Haifa to the Golan Heights.
