Unconfirmed photo circulating reportedly of the rocket launcher used today. Nothing on reverse search that I can see, so looks new?

Appears to be a 122mm MRLS, which aligns with the hezbollah statement of "dozens of 122m rockets"

by #Israel against Al-Dabba Airbase. But we need to look at the full timeline of events first to understand the full picture here.
