On Saturday, the terrorist organization Hezbollah claimed responsibility for firing advanced Iranian-manufactured Falaq-2 rockets at an Israeli military base in Beit Hillel, northern Israel. This incident marks the first reported use of such rockets by Hezbollah forces in Lebanon against Israel. The Falaq-2 rockets, which have a range of 11 kilometers (approximately 7 miles) and carry a 60 kg (about 130-lb) warhead, represent a significant escalation in the fire exchange between Israeli forces and the Iranian-backed militia. The Falaq-2 is an upgrade from the Falaq-1 rocket, which Hezbollah began using six months ago and has a slightly smaller 50 kg (110-lb) warhead.
