Israeli forces fired artillery into southern Lebanon after an incoming anti-tank missile wounded several Israeli civilians near the border, an army spokesman said, AFP reports.

The Israeli army said “a number of civilians were wounded” in the anti-tank missile strike near the village of Dovev, just half a mile (800 metres) from the frontier with Lebanon.

“Artillery is striking the origin of the launch,” a statement said.

The Israel Electric Corporation said that the missile from Lebanon had “hit employees” who were repairing power lines downed by earlier strikes.
