Israelis throughout the country were ordered to shelter in place amid a large-scale attack involving drones coming from the direction of the northern border on Wednesday evening. No injuries or rocket falls have been reported as of yet.

Shortly after the attack began, reports were received of terrorists on paragliders landing in northern Israel. Rocket alerts were issued throughout northern Israel as well, including in Haifa. Haifa’s al-Qassam Brigades said it fired a rocket toward Haifa amid the attack.

Terrorist infiltration alerts were issued in Maalot Tarshicha and Maayan Baruch in northern Israel simultaneously. Shortly afterward, an all clear was given in Maalot Tarshica.

[If this was a test, Israel provided an answer with a missile strike on a Hezbollah observation post in southern Lebanon. Don’t jump the gun on assuming that Hezbollah will enter this fight, although they may conduct enough activity to force Israel to keep significant ground and armor committed in the north. With a mobilization of 360,000 reserve troops, Israel can afford to do so. — Ed]
