As the Israel-Hamas war enters its 277th day and intense military activity continues, tragedy follows on.

A man and a woman were killed a direct rocket strike on their car in the Golan Heights. Firefighting teams who arrived at the scene rescued the two citizens from the burning vehicle, which had sustained a direct hit, and transferred them to medical personnel for treatment at the site, who tragically later succumbed to their injuries.

Approximately 40 rocket launches were identified crossing from Lebanon into the central Golan Heights area. This is likely in response to the assassination of the former bodyguard of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah near Damascus, as Hezbollah announced that "in response to the assassination in Syria, we launched dozens of Katyusha rockets at bases in the Golan Heights."

Sources told Saudi networks Al-Hadath and Al-Arabiya that the target of the assassination was a senior Hezbollah figure named Abu Al-Fadl Karnbash. According to the report, he played a significant role in weapons smuggling from Syria to Lebanon. The road they were traveling on is used as one of the routes for smuggling Iranian weapons to Hezbollah.

At the same time, at least eight fires broke out in open areas as a result of the barrage. Firefighting teams have begun extinguishing efforts.
