"Israeli enemy soldiers renewed an attempt to advance towards the vicinity of the municipality in the village of Adaysseh", and Hezbollah fighters confronted the attempt "and clashes are continuing", the group said in a statement.
It said earlier that its fighters had forced Israeli troops to "retreat" in the same area.
The Lebanese group also said it targeted troops in south Lebanon's Yarun area with a "rocket salvo", as well as soldiers in two points across the border with rockets.
Hezbollah and Israel have been exchanging near-daily cross-border fire for almost a year, with the group saying it is acting in support of Palestinian suffering under Israel's war on Gaza.
Israel, which has shifted the focus of its war toward the north, has intensified its bombardment, killing at least 2,000 in few days and this week announced its troops had started ground raids into parts of southern Lebanon.
