Shelling intensified across Lebanon’s frontier with Israel, with Hezbollah saying it had fired missiles at eight positions across the border and Israel saying it had retaliated with artillery, Reuters reports.

In statements throughout the day, Hezbollah said it had hit eight sites in Israel, including a group of Israeli soldiers, a barracks and other military posts.

A Lebanese security source said Israeli bombardment, including drone strikes, hit at least a dozen villages all along Lebanon’s southern border.

The Israeli military said in a statement it had struck a “cell” in Lebanon that had tried launching anti-tank missiles towards Israel and was firing artillery onto other targets.

It said no injuries were reported in shelling on Israel.
