The Lebanese militia and political movement has downed three multi-million dollar IDF drones since February amid raging border tensions in the face of Israel’s war in Gaza.
Hezbollah’s leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, warned this week that the militia has a “doctrinal, ethical and religious responsibility” to fight Israel to the end.Air raid sirens sounded over northern Israel and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Sunday morning as Hezbollah drones flew across the border undetected and proceeded on to their target – an IDF Iron Dome battery.
Israeli media said at least three drones were involved, with one of them shot down over Metula, a small settlement running right up against the border with Lebanon. Two more apparently evaded air defenses made their way to Katzrin, the unofficial capital of the Israeli-occupied portion of the Golan Heights.
The explosive-laden UAVs reportedly crashed down in open areas outside the settlement, one of them sparking a blaze. The Israeli military deployed forces to the area to search for debris. No injuries were reported.
The Israeli Air Force announced overnight strikes Saturday and early Sunday morning against suspected Hezbollah compounds in Beqaa, Bint Jbeil, Qana, and Baraachit “in response” to the group’s shootdown of a $6 million Israeli Hermes 900 heavy drone near Deir Kifa, southern Lebanon.
