The IDF says three rockets were fired from Lebanon at northern Israel, setting off sirens in Kiryat Shmona and nearby communities.

It adds that troops are responding with artillery shelling.

There are no reports of injuries or damage.

Earlier, the IDF said it struck a number of suspects in an area known to be used by Hezbollah operatives in southern Lebanon.
