Two “suspicious aerial targets” launched from Lebanon were intercepted by air defenses and fighter jets over the Mount Hermon area, the military says.

A fire was sparked as a result of falling shrapnel in the area.

Another interceptor missile was launched at the targets from the Safed area, although it exploded over the city, sparking another fire, the IDF says.

The IDF says the incident is under further investigation.
