A barrage of some 50 rockets were launched from Lebanon at the central Golan Heights a short while ago, the military says.
Air defenses shot down several of the rockets, while the rest impacted open areas, the IDF adds.
There were no injuries in the attack, claimed by Hezbollah.
The terror group in a statement says it launched dozens of Katyusha rockets at an army base in the Golan Heights, in response to an IDF strike last night in northeastern Lebanon.
Hezbollah also names a third member killed in the strike, which according to the IDF targeted a significant Hezbollah facility.
