The IDF says it struck several rocket launchers in southern Lebanon used by Hezbollah in its rocket barrage on northern Israel this evening.
In all, some 45 rockets were fired by Hezbollah at the north, triggering sirens in Haifa and across the Galilee.
The military says most of the rockets were intercepted by air defenses, others hit open areas, and one projectile struck a town in the Western Galilee. Medics treated three people who were lightly injured by the rocket strike.
The Israeli Air Force is working to locate and strike additional launchers, the military adds.
