Al Jazeera quotes Israel’s Army Radio as saying that a salvo of rockets has been launched from Lebanon, causing air raid sirens to be activated in several areas of northern Israel.

Israel’s Home Front Command reported that sirens were sounding in dozens of towns in the Sharon region, the Upper Galilee and the northern occupied Golan Heights, Al Jazeera says.

The Israeli military has said that at least some of the alerts were caused by a surface-to-surface ballistic missile fired from Lebanon which exploded. No casualties or damage has been reported.
