The Israeli military says it is "defending its borders" from a number of missiles launched from Lebanon, in response to a series cross-border attacks carried out by Hezbollah.

No injuries in Israel were reported, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) says - adding that artillery has responded to the source of the attacks across the border.

Fighter jets also targeted what the IDF describes as "Hezbollah terror targets" in Lebanon including a military compound, infrastructure and a "terrorist squad".
