Firefighters are battling a number of blazes sparked by rockets fired at northern Israel from Lebanon earlier today.
A spokesperson for the Golan-Galilee division of the Fire and Rescue Services says flames erupted at a number of sites, including Had Ness in the Golan and Kibbutz Ayelet HaShahar in the Upper Galilee.
The IDF said a barrage of around 50 rockets was fired from Lebanon earlier today, with some intercepted and others falling in open areas.
