Channel 12 reports there may be exchanges of fire between military forces and Lebanese gunmen.
The Israel Defense Forces says it has also closed roads in the area and orders all farmers, hikers and tourists to immediately leave all open areas and farmlands.
“Please continue to be updated on directives that are being put out by media outlets and listen to all orders by security forces and the IDF, which are operating in the area,” the military says.
