Hezbollah fired about 15 rockets at the Karmiel area in northern Israel on Monday afternoon.
Several pieces of shrapnel fell in Karmiel and a woman in her 50s was lightly injured.
One rocket scored a direct hit on a parked car, causing it to go up in flames. Firefighters quickly arrived at the scene and put out the fire.
It was later revealed that a huge neis had occurred as the “parked car” had been stopped by the driver on the side of the road when he heard the siren. Following Home Front Command instructions, he parked his car on the road and lay down on the side of the road at a safe distance from the vehicle. Just seconds after he took cover, a missile struck his car, which immediately went up in flames.

That’s called hashgacha pratis, not a “HUGE NEIS”.
A “HUGE NEIS” would be if the rocket hit the car when he was inside and burned up the car yet he walked out unscathed.
