Last month, Hezbollah launched over 100 rockets at Haifa in two barrages.
This comes days after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admitted that Tel Aviv was behind the pager and walkie-talkie attacks in Lebanon in September.
"The pager operation and the elimination of (Hezbollah leader Hassan) Nasrallah were carried out despite the opposition of senior officials in the defence establishment and those responsible for them in the political echelon," The Times of Israel quoted Netanyahu as saying.
