"The army overnight detected suspects approaching the security fence from the Lebanese side and scrambled security forces to the location," Israeli army Arabic-language front man Avichay Adraee said in a tweet.

The Israel force discovered two machineguns and around 100 hand grenades, Adraee added.

"We will continue to work against any attempt to violate Israel’s illusory sovereignty or carry out acts of sabotage and smuggling on the border with Lebanon," the front man went on to say.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett later announced that the Israeli forces "foiled an extraordinary arms smuggling operation on the Lebanese border."

He said the forces seized "100 hand grenades that were supposed to be used to stage terrorist operations."

The development comes a day after a rocket was fired at northern Israel from southern Lebanon drawing retaliatory tank fire.
