Fresh sirens are sounding in the northern coastal city of Acre, as well as in the mostly evacuated Lebanon border city of Kiryat Shmona.
Acre is located some 19 kilometers from the Lebanon border.
The sirens in Acre are activated due to interceptor missiles being launched at suspected drones in the area, rather than rocket fire, according to initial reports.
