It's easy to think of artillery and rockets as something that can be lobbed at an enemy from a safe position, but that is generally not true. The range of most rockets and artillery is not as far as you might think. I estimate they are probably coming from less than 10km away. If you have drones in the air, it's very possible to find out where they are coming from and blow them up with counterbattery fire.

Air defense alarms (they work based on estimated trajectory) are going on 30km north of Tel-Aviv. > If you have drones in the air, it's very possible to find out where they are coming from and blow them up with counterbattery fire. It's pointless. Most of launch sites are single use holes in a ground that were covered till it's time to shoot something.
