Rockets were fired from Lebanon at northern Israel towns, and the Hezbollah group attacked several Israeli army posts along the border, as skirmishes on the frontier continued, amid the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip.
According to the Israel Defense Forces, nine rockets were launched from Lebanon, setting off sirens in Kiryat Shmona and several nearby communities. The IDF said four were intercepted by the Iron Dome air defense system, reports The Times of Israel.
At least one rocket landed in the northern city, causing no injuries or damage.
Shortly before the rocket sirens, the Israel Defense Forces said one of its tanks shelled two anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) launch positions in southern Lebanon, where the military identified an attempt to carry out an attack.
At the same time, it said projectiles were also launched from Lebanon at the contested Mount Dov area, where there are a number of military posts and no towns.
A third ATGM launch site was struck following a missile attack on the northern town of Metula.
