According to a report by Ynet, Hezbollah launched an explosive drone at Israeli forces operating in southern Lebanon within the past 24 hours. The report claims the IDF concealed the incident. The IDF has not yet commented on the report.
The report from Ynet adds to a series of ceasefire violations by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. In recent weeks, Hezbollah has launched rockets, mortars, anti-tank missiles, and small arms at IDF forces operating in the Security Zone, as The Zioneer has covered. The IDF has repeatedly struck Hezbollah targets in response. The current report, if confirmed, would mark the first known use of an explosive drone by Hezbollah against Israeli forces in this round. The IDF has not yet responded to the Ynet report.
