Israel’s i24 News television said on Thursday that several northern Israeli towns bordering Lebanon were placed under lockdown after reports of a possible "terrorist" infiltration.
The television did not provide any further details.
On Wednesday, the Israeli army said that rocket alert sirens were launched in North Israel.
Since the surprise October 7 attack by Hamas on southern Israel, there have been near daily exchanges of cross-border fire between the Israeli army, and Hezbollah and other armed Palestinian factions.

US Says Anti-ISIS Operation in Iraq Kills Coalition Soldier

The US military said on Monday operations against ISIS in Iraq over the past week led to the death of a non-US coalition soldier and wounded two other non-US personnel.

It also detailed operations in Syria against ISIS militants led by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, including one that resulted in the capture of what the US military's Central Command said was an ISIS attack cell leader.

US officials have said ISIS is hoping to stage a comeback in Syria following the fall in December of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
