According to The Times of Israel, Hezbollah carried out an airstrike targeting the city of Safed, northern Israel, in the early morning of September 13 (local time).
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said there were no casualties as they intercepted most of the missiles launched from Hezbollah drones.
However, many facilities in the city of Safed were damaged and the nearby Birya forest caught fire.
Firefighters were immediately dispatched to the scene. The fire was not completely extinguished until 7am (local time).
According to the IDF, this is one of the rare times Hezbollah has attacked deep into Israel. The city of Safed is located in the northern territory of Israel, 13km from the border with Lebanon and is home to about 38,000 people.
Hezbollah later claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was in retaliation for an Israeli attack on the village of Kfarjouz in Lebanon the day before.
Cross-border conflicts between Israel and Hezbollah are becoming more frequent, with the two sides continuously responding to each other with airstrikes, and the potential for another major war in the Middle East is always lurking alongside the Israel-Hamas conflict.
Hezbollah has repeatedly stated that the reason for its attacks on the Israeli border is to protect its ally Hamas.
Israel announced that its army had killed more than 400 Hezbollah gunmen, but about 20 civilians and 26 soldiers were killed in cross-border fighting with Hezbollah.
