Mortar hits northern Israel, IDF responds with artillery

The IDF targeted a group of terrorists who were operating near the border in Lebanese territory, the IDF said on Friday.

Earlier, the IDF reported multiple launches from Lebanon towards the Mount Dov area in Israeli territory.

The IDF responded with artillery fire directed at the source of the launches.

Additionally, following the fall of a mortar near Kibbutz Dan in northern Israel on Friday, Highway 99 was closed to traffic from the She’ar Yeshuv junction to the east, the Upper Galilee Regional Council said.

False alarm

Later, a rocket alarm sounded in the northern Israeli community of Dovev, near the border with Lebanon. The alarm, however, was a false alarm, the IDF said.

The IDF added that it confirmed 20 launches from Lebanese territory that had been fired into Israel.

Additionally, on Friday afternoon, multiple anti-tank missiles were fired toward IDF positions on the Lebanon border. Fire from light arms was also directed toward an IDF observation post.

No casualties were reported among IDF personnel from these events, but IDF continued to respond with artillery fire directed at the sources of the shooting.
