The IDF struck a launch site and the suspected terrorist responsible for projectile fire from Lebanon near the HaMifratz area in northern Israel on Thursday. 

Projectiles were launched from Lebanon toward HaMifratz, prompting the Israel Air Force (IAF) to strike back, targeting the launch point and neutralizing the assailant.
