Israeli army says 3 rockets fired at Israel from Lebanon
Projectiles fired from Lebanon triggered air raid sirens in northern Israel, the Israeli military said on Monday, adding it had intercepted one of them.
"Following the sirens that sounded in several areas in northern Israel, a projectile that crossed from Lebanon into Israeli territory was intercepted by the Israeli Air Force, and several projectiles fell in open areas," the Israeli military posted on Telegram.
Hezbollah said on Sunday it had a "duty" to support backer Iran after Israeli and U.S. strikes.
But the group has not confirmed action since the United States and Israel began attacks on Saturday, killing Iran's supreme leader and sparking a wave of retaliatory drone and missile strikes.
Hezbollah has been weakened from conflict with Israel, which it entered to support Hamas following the Palestinian militant group's deadly attack on Israel in October 2023 and the subsequent war in the Gaza strip.
Israel and Hezbollah signed a ceasefire agreement in November 2024, although Israel has continued to strike targets it says are linked to the Lebanese group.
Hezbollah did not intervene during a 12-day war between Israel and Iran last June.
