At least six were killed and more than 30 were wounded in the Hezbollah rocket attack on Majdal Shams in the northern Golan Heights this evening.

The death toll is expected to rise, as at least three are listed in critical condition.

The IDF assesses that the rocket that struck the soccer field where kids were playing was relatively heavy.

The military is investigating why it failed to intercept the projectile.

Top IDF brass are currently holding assessments on the attack, the deadliest by Hezbollah amid the ongoing skirmishes on the northern border, and will determine a response against the terror group.

The rocket landed at a soccer game in a Druze community in Northern Israel. As many as 15 children are dead, 30+ wounded, 15 critically. This is really bad.
