Three explosive-laden drones launched from Lebanon struck areas in the Western Galilee earlier this evening, the military says.
The IDF says it launched interceptor missiles at the drones, but failed to down the devices.
Additionally, some 25 rockets were fired from Lebanon at the Western Galilee and the Kiryat Shmona area in separate barrages, according to the IDF.
Damage was caused to a building in the Western Galilee by one of the rockets, the military says.
The rockets also sparked several fires in northern Israel.
No injuries were caused in the drone and rocket attacks.
The IDF says it shelled the sources of fire with artillery.

“[We are] preparing the military force… and this can happen quickly. On the other hand, the political alternative is being prepared, it is always better,” he says.
“We are not looking for war but we are ready for it. And we will reach a junction, it will be a T junction both for the enemy and for us. If [Hezbollah] chooses to go to war, we will know what to do. If it chooses to go to an agreement, we will respond to this matter,” Gallant says.
