The Israeli military says that its artillery is responding to mortar attacks.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that they have carried out artillery stirkes on the territory of Lebanon in response to mortar attacks from across the border.
The shelling was reported on Sunday morning, a day after Hamas and other Palestinian groups launched a large-scale assault on Israeli cities and army bases from the Gaza strip.
“The IDF has been taking preparational measures for this type of possibility and will continue to operate in all regions and at any time necessary to ensure the safety of the Israeli civilians,” the army said in a statement carried by the Times of Israel.
The shells that had earlier been fired from the Lebanese territory reportedly hit an Israeli military site in the contested Shebaa Farms.
The IDF said its “artillery is currently striking the area in Lebanon from where a shooting was carried out.”
Al Arabiya reported that the Israeli shelling had targeted an area near the village of Kafar Shuba in southern Lebanon. There were no casualties as a result of the strikes, it added.
Later on Sunday, Lebanese movement Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attack on Shebaa Farms, Reuters reported, citing a statement by the group.
Three Israeli military posts, including a “radar site,” were targeted, Hezbollah said, adding that it had acted “in solidarity” with the Palestinian people.
The Shebaa Farms area, which has been occupied by Israel since 1967, is claimed by Lebanon as part of its territory.

Hatred on both sides is well nurtured through controlled events.
