Clashes have erupted again on the border between Lebanon and Israel, where Israeli forces and armed groups in Lebanon have engaged in a series of low-level skirmishes since the outbreak of war in Gaza.

An anti-tank missile fired from Lebanon landed in the town of Metula in northern Israel on Tuesday morning, injuring three people, according to the Ziv Medical Centre in Safed.
