A barrage of some 35 rockets was fired from Lebanon towards Israel's Safed city, as the Jewish community sat down for the Passover Seder meal on Monday. Later, a statement from Hezbollah confirmed the rocket attack, claiming to have launched "dozens" of Katyusha rockets towards the country.

The Israel-Hamas war has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials, at least two-thirds of them children and women. It has devastated Gaza's two largest cities and left a swath of destruction. Around 80 per cent of the territory's population have fled to other parts of the besieged coastal enclave.
