An IDF reservist from Maglan, identified as David, speaking from southern Lebanon, says Hezbollah is constantly sending suicide drones at his unit, causing many casualties. He appeals for high-speed thermal cameras and drones to spot threats without exposing soldiers, noting the unit plans to move deeper into Hezbollah territory in four days. The appeal is verified by the distributing organization.
An IDF reservist from Maglan, a special forces unit, issued an urgent appeal Thursday evening, describing ongoing Hezbollah drone attacks that have caused casualties among his unit. Speaking from an undisclosed location in southern Lebanon, the reservist, who identified himself only as David, said the unit needs high-speed thermal cameras and drones to counter the threat without endangering troops. He said the unit is set to move deeper into Hezbollah territory in four days, making the equipment urgently needed. The appeal is distributed by a verified fundraising organization, with tax-deductible donations.
The Zioneer has previously reported on similar accounts from IDF reservists on the ground in Lebanon, including a June 30 bulletin about an IDF commander's appeal for drones after a firefight that killed two soldiers. The broader context of the ground operation in southern Lebanon has been marked by Hezbollah's continued use of drones and rockets, as documented in multiple reports.
