Incoming rocket sirens are sounding in several communities in the Upper Galilee, close to the northern city of Safed.
Footage shows the Iron Dome air defense system active over the area, amid what appears to be a major barrage from Lebanon.
Sirens also sound in Katzrin in the Golan Heights.
There are no immediate reports of injuries.
The sirens come after a series of false alarms this morning.
