"Israel Prepares for Potential War with Hezbollah as Tensions Escalate"

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant warned that a potential war with Hezbollah could result in significant rocket strikes on Haifa, urging the city to enhance its preparations. With Hezbollah possessing 150,000 rockets and the capability to launch up to 8,000 per day, even with an 80-90% interception rate by the Iron Dome, the potential damage to Haifa is concerning. While Israel is confident in its military capabilities, it acknowledges that Hezbollah's sustained rocket fire could pose a significant threat to the home front.
