 Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Janine Herbst. Hezbollah launched a barrage of rockets and drones from southern Lebanon into northern Israel this morning. The Iranian-backed group claimed it was partially in response to Israel's killing of a senior Hezbollah commander earlier this week. NPR's Kat Lonsdorf has more from Tel Aviv. Air raid sirens sounded throughout Israel's north as Hezbollah sent what it called a, quote, squadron of assault drones, along with hundreds of rockets towards several Israeli military bases.
