Ten people, including children, were killed in a rocket attack on a football ground in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Saturday, Israeli media reported.
The Israeli military said the rocket was fired by Lebanese group Hezbollah, but the Iran-backed group denied any involvement in the attack.
The Israeli ambulance service said 13 more people were wounded by a rocket fired from Lebanon that hit a football pitch in the Druze village of Majdal Shams.
The attack is likely to draw a fierce response from Israel, which has intermittently exchanged fire across the Lebanese border with Hezbollah since the October 7 attack.
A witness told Reuters: "It landed in the soccer pitch, all of them are children ... many bodies and remains are in field we don't know who they are."
Earlier on Saturday, at least 30 people died after Israeli airstrikes hit a school being used by displaced people in central Gaza, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.
The victims had been sheltering at a girls’ school in Deir Al-Balah and were taken to Al Aqsa hospital for treatment following the strike on Saturday.
The Israel Defence Forces claimed the strike had targeted a Hamas command and control centre used to store weapons and plan attacks.
