Destruction in Kiryat Shmona
Meanwhile on Thursday, The mayor of Kiryat Shmona lamented that the largely evacuated northern border town has been battered by Hezbollah rockets, with many homes being destroyed.
“Unfortunately, every day we have to tell more families that they will not have a home to return to, there are houses that need to be demolished and rebuilt,” Avichai Stern told the Ynet news site.
He asked why the lives of northern residents were apparently of “lower value” than those who lived in the center of the Zionist entity.
“We need to get to a point where [Hezbollah fighters] are afraid to fire at Kiryat Shmona,” he urged.
