Israel retaliated with artillery fire, and IAF jets fired missiles at terrorist positions, injuring two people.
Hezbollah said it fired a missile, which narrowly missed hitting an unmanned army bulldozer near the security fence separating Lebanon from Har Dov, a strategic position which is part of the Hermon Mountain range. The attack came as IDF troops nearby were checking the area for explosive devices. Three days ago IDF forces were saved by a cow which stepped on a land mine planted by terrorists.
Thousands of tourists visit Hermon year-round, including the winter when it usually is open for skiers.
Benny Gantz, head of the Northern Command, said he is meeting with other officials concerning the continuing two week-long escalation after two months of quiet.
One official said, "Hezbollah has a clear objective of heating up the northern border."
