Israel army says intercepted two projectiles fired from Lebanon

Israel's military said Sunday that it had intercepted two projectiles launched from Lebanon into Israeli territory, despite a new ceasefire agreement announced this week aimed at ending hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

"Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in the areas of Yiftah and Ramot Naftali, two projectiles that crossed from Lebanon into Israeli territory were intercepted," the military reported.

Israel and Lebanon agreed to a new U.S.-brokered ceasefire on Wednesday. However, Hezbollah has rejected the agreement.

Israel has threatened to target Beirut's southern suburbs if Hezbollah launches attacks on northern Israel. U.S. President Donald Trump had recently announced an agremeent under which both sides would refrain from bombing the aforementioned Lebanese and Israeli regions.
