The Israel Defense Forces says another anti-tank guided missile was fired from Lebanon, this one at a military post near the northern community of Margaliot.
It marks the second missile attack today, apparently carried out by the Hezbollah terror group.
The IDF does not immediately provide details on possible casualties.
Additionally, a number of other military posts along the Lebanon border were attacked with gunfire, the IDF adds.
The IDF says it is responding with artillery shelling toward the sources of the missile fire and gunfire.
