The siren that sounded in the northern coastal kibbutz of Neve Yam a short while ago was triggered by an interceptor missile, the military says.

According to the IDF, the interceptor was launched toward a surface-to-air missile fired by Hezbollah at an Israeli Air Force drone that was operating over an area of southern Lebanon where troops are deployed.

No damage or injuries were caused in the incident, the military says.
