Over 40 projectiles have been launched from Lebanon across Israel's northern border toward the Galilee and Golan Heights area since Thursday morning, Israeli military officials told ABC News.

Two people were hit by shrapnel and wounded in the Golan Heights, according to Israeli Emergency Services.

The Israel Defense Forces said military exercises are continuing in the north to increase readiness.

Hamas’ new demands in response to the latest cease-fire proposal include an insistence that the timetable be moved up for the withdrawal of Israeli troops from all Gazan territory, according to a U.S. official with knowledge of the negotiations.

The official also said that Hamas communicated additional demands for assurances that a lasting cease-fire would be achieved that were not included in the previous version of the agreement.

In the first days of May, Hamas seemingly accepted a hostage deal presented by Qatar and Egypt, only for Israel to say it had not signed off on that draft, sparking mass confusion. Later, Israel did say it would return to the negotiating table, which eventually led to the formation of the proposal on the table.

When Hezbollah fired a massive barrage of rockets into northern Israel on Wednesday morning, Meron Bareket said his whole house shook.

"It was kind of a showstopper," Bareket told ABC News. "You just jumped out of your seat."

He lives in Kibbutz Amiad, about 10 miles from the Lebanon border.

Bareket said he quickly ran with his two daughters, ages 2 and 5, to their shelter.

He said he’s fearful the situation on Israel’s northern border "will become a real war."

Bareket said he struggles to explain the situation to his young daughters who have become so accustomed to the sounds and sights of war that they now can differentiate between an F-15 and an F-16 fighter jet when an aircraft flies overhead.

"They point to the sky and ask me if it's safe to go out, and I don't know," he said. "Is it?"

When Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu heard the reports on Sunday about a daily "tactical pause" along an aid route, he contacted his military secretary and made it clear that this was unacceptable to him, an Israeli official told ABC News.

After an inquiry, the prime minister was informed that there was no change in Isreal Defense Forces policy and that the fighting in Rafah would continue as planned, the official said.

IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari released a statement in Hebrew shortly after announcement saying the pause will affect a single aid route.

"There is no cessation of fighting in the southern Gaza Strip, and the fighting in Rafah continues," Hagari said. "Also, there is no change in the introduction of goods into the Gaza Strip."
