BEIRUT (AFP): The Israeli military said some 60 rockets were fired into Israeli territory from Lebanon on Friday, as sirens rang out in northern Israel.

“A barrage of some 60 rockets was fired at 1:02 pm (1002 GMT),” a military spokeswoman told AFP.

The incoming fire came after the Israeli military said it struck dozens of rocket launchers overnight that were ready for use against Israel.
