Several rockets and explosive drones were launched by Hezbollah at Israeli troops stationed in southern Lebanon today, the military says.

The IDF says the projectiles exploded near the forces but did not cause any injuries.

Additionally, a short while ago an interceptor missile was fired toward a suspected Hezbollah drone over an area of southern Lebanon where troops are deployed. The IDF says the results of the interception are under review.
