The attack occurred shortly after 4:00 PM, when several drones crossed the border from Lebanon into Israeli territory.

In addition, 3 anti-tank missiles were launched at Metula, and one house in the settlement suffered a direct hit. In two other incidents, heavy "Flak" missiles were fired at the Beit Hillel area.

In these cases, there were no injuries or damage.

In response, fighter jets have attacked targets of the Hezbollah terrorist organization in southern Lebanon in recent hours. Among the targets attacked were a Hezbollah observation post in the Merkaba area and a launcher in the Aita al-Shaab area from which a launch was carried out today toward northern Israel.

In addition, IDF forces carried out artillery fire to remove a threat to several areas in southern Lebanon.
