Projectile launched from Lebanon intercepted over northern Israel

Israeli troops shot down a “suspicious aerial target” which infiltrated Israel’s airspace from Lebanon a short while ago, the Israel Defense Forces says about 45 minutes after sirens were triggered in two northern communities.

There are no injuries in the incident, the army says.

Rocket sirens were triggered in Kerem Ben Zimra and Jish near the Lebanon border out of fear of falling shrapnel, according to the IDF.
