Three rockets were fired from southern Lebanon towards Israeli occupied territory on Friday and Israel's army responded with artillery fire, Lebanon's military said, adding it was unclear who was behind the initial attack.
In the past, militants linked to al-Qaeda have claimed such attacks.
The rockets were fired from the Marjayoun -- Hasbaya area towards occupied Palestinian territories, a statement from Lebanon's army said. The projectiles were launched in the hours before dawn.
The army said it discovered two missile platforms with more rockets ready for launch after searching the area. It had dismantled them and was continuing to sweep the area for the culprits.
There have been several exchanges across the border in the past year.
In December, rockets launched from Lebanon struck Israeli occupied territories, provoking a response across a border that had been largely quiet since a war in 2006. In August, the Abdullah Azzam Brigades, an organization linked to al-Qaeda claimed a rocket barrage from Lebanon.
