Several civilians were injured in an anti-tank guided missile attack in the northern Israeli community of Dovev near the border with Lebanon, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Sunday.

The IDF said it had responded with artillery shelling toward the source of the missile fire.

An Israeli ambulance service spokesperson told Israel's N12 News that one person was critically wounded and between three to five others injured.

Lebanon's Hezbollah group claimed responsibility for the attack, but said they used guided missiles to target a bulldozer belonging to the Israeli army, according to Lebanon's TV channel Al Jadeed. However, the Israel Electric Corporation said its employees were hit in the attack while repairing power lines.
