Mohammed Yasser Naim, 22, was killed Tuesday morning after the Hezbollah terror group launched a heavy barrage of rockets towards northern Israel.

One of the rockets hit a building near a mosque in the northern town of Ma'alot-Tarshiha, killing Naim and causing three others to suffer from shock.

Magen David Adom (MDA) EMT Gilad Benhamu said, "This was a difficult scene - we saw that a home had been hit and we began to search. We saw a man who was unconscious, had no heartbeat, and was not breathing. We performed medical examinations but his injury was critical and we were forced to declare his death. MDA teams are providing medical aid at the scene to a number of shock victims."

The Fire and Rescue Service said: "After the heavy barrage from Lebanon, a number of rockets fell, and there is great damage in Ma'alot-Tarshiha. Firefighting teams from the Central Galilee fire station are at the scene and are shutting sources of energy and searching for anyone who might be trapped."

The strikes follow a string of sirens throughout the Galilee; the IDF later confirmed that approximately 50 projectiles were fired, only some of which were intercepted.
