STORYLINE:
Sirens were heard in Haifa on Friday following an alert of incoming rockets from Lebanon into Israel.

Smoke was later seen rising in the city.

The Israeli army said in a statement that ten rockets were fired, some of which were intercepted and others landed in an open area.

Hezbollah started firing rockets on Israel in support of Gaza on Oct. 8, a day after Hamas militants launched an unprecedented attack on Israel, killing some 1,200 people and abducting another 250.

Since then, the two sides have been engaged in cross border strikes that have gradually escalated and displaced tens of thousands of civilians on both sides of the border.

Hezbollah says its barrages are a show of support for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
