An explosion rocked the outskirts of a town in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley on Tuesday which two sources familiar with the matter said was caused by Hezbollah detonating old munitions.
Local media reported that the munition was an Israeli missile from the 1986 war in Lebanon.
A Lebanese Army spokesperson was not immediately available for comment.
The explosion took place on the outskirts of the town of al-Nabi Sheet near the mountainous Syrian border, Al Jadeed TV reported.
Videos shared online showed a column of smoke rising above a mountainous area.
