Six people suffered mild smoke inhalation on Monday, according to Magen David Adom, after Hezbollah rocket fire from Lebanon struck the northern Israeli coastal city of Nahariya.

The injured—two teenage girls and four adults—were treated by paramedics and evacuated to the Galilee Medical Center.

Maj. Gen. Shai Klapper, commander of the Israel Defense Forces Home Front Command, visited the impact site and credited residents who stayed in protected spaces with saving their own lives.

“Because they were in protected spaces, lives were saved, and these families are alive,” he said, urging Israelis to continue following Home Front Command safety directives.

Klapper also thanked Nahariya’s municipal leadership for its “professional and courageous” response.

Meanwhile, the Iranian regime continued firing missiles at Israel, including a launch early Tuesday, with no reports of casualties or impacts, according to MDA.

According to the Israeli Health Ministry, since the start of “Operation Roaring Lion” on Feb. 28, 3,530 people had been evacuated to hospitals as of 7 a.m. Tuesday, with 86 still hospitalized—eight who suffered severe injuries and are listed in serious condition, 16 who suffered moderate injuries and are listed in satisfactory or serious condition, 60 who suffered light injuries and are listed in good condition, and two being treated for anxiety.

In the past 24 hours alone, it said, 70 new casualties were admitted, including four with moderate injuries, nine suffering from anxiety and dozens who suffered light injuries and are listed in good condition.

Since the beginning of the war, 15 civilians have been killed in Israel.
