The IDF denied reports originating in Lebanon claiming a strike in the Baalbek area. Separately, a suspicious aerial target was identified near Misgav Am in northern Israel but did not cross into Israeli territory; the incident ended without casualties, according to the military.
The IDF this morning denied Lebanese reports of a strike in the Baalbek area, saying it was not aware of such an incident. Separately, following alerts in the north, a suspicious aerial target was identified near Misgav Am. The military stated the target did not cross into Israeli territory and the incident ended with no casualties. The denial and the aerial target come amid ongoing low-level exchanges along the Israel-Lebanon border. As The Zioneer reported in a related episode at 09:10 Jerusalem, a similar suspicious target earlier in the day near Misgav Am was also identified and ruled a false alarm after not crossing into Israel. The IDF continues to monitor the northern sector.
