01 · THE DISPATCH

The IDF announced on Monday evening that it dismantled a Hezbollah surveillance drone cell in southern Lebanon. The cell, based in the Kfar Kila area, was responsible for operating drones for aerial reconnaissance against Israeli border communities, the military said in a statement reported by Walla. The operation follows a series of Israeli actions against Hezbollah's aerial surveillance capabilities along the Blue Line. As The Zioneer has reported, the IDF has consistently targeted Hezbollah observation posts and drone operators in southern Lebanon since the escalation in September 2024. The extent of casualties or the precise method of the dismantling was not immediately detailed in the military's statement.
