The IDF says projectiles, apparently anti-tank missiles, were fired from Lebanon at the military’s sensitive Mount Meron air traffic control base a short while ago.

The strike caused no injuries and “no harm to the unit’s capabilities,” the IDF says.

The IDF says it shelled the launch site in southern Lebanon.

Hezbollah has attacked Mount Meron, which is located some eight kilometers (5 miles) from the Lebanon border, several times amid the ongoing war, launching large barrages of rockets at the mountain, as well as missiles at the base that sits atop it.
