Five rockets were fired from Syria at northern Israel earlier this evening, the IDF says.

Sirens sounded in the southern Golan Heights communities of Avnei Eitan and Nov, but the IDF says all the projectiles landed in open areas, causing no injuries or damage.

The IDF says it shelled the launch sites in southern Syria. Additionally, the IDF says it struck a Hezbollah site in southern Lebanon from which projectiles were launched at the Adamit area in northern Israel earlier, lightly wounding five reservists.

The army has released footage of the strike.
