Israel has carried out several air strikes against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, according to the Israeli military on Sunday morning.
The air force has, according to the statement, attacked "military infrastructure belonging to Hezbollah", while also intercepting a number of rockets fired from Lebanon.
The Iran-backed Hezbollah claimed earlier in the night that they had attacked Israel in retaliation for Saturday's Israeli attack on southern Lebanon – when three medical workers were killed and two injured, according to the Lebanese authorities.
In a statement, the Shia militia claims to have fired rockets at the town of Kiryat Shmona in Israel, a few kilometers from the border with Lebanon.
Israel and Hezbollah have been shelling each other almost daily since the war in Gaza broke out last year.
