A “suspicious aerial target” heading into Israeli airspace from Lebanon, in the Manara area, was downed by the Iron Dome, the IDF says.
The incident set off sirens in the Kiryat Shmona area.
Several anti-tank missiles were also fired from Lebanon at the same area, and the IDF says it shelled the launch site with artillery.
Fighter jets also hit a Hezbollah site in southern Lebanon’s Qouzah, the IDF adds.
