The Israel Defense Forces says two mortars were launched from Lebanon at northern Israel earlier.
Sirens sounded in the Upper Galilee towns of Iftach and Ramot Naftali.
The military says one projectile landed in an open area, causing no injuries, and the other projectile landed short in Lebanon.
A Hezbollah official tells Reuters it had no part in a cross-border raid in which several gunmen were killed by Israeli forces after breaching the ceasefire line.
