IDF forces on Tuesday identified a drone belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization, which crossed into Israel from Lebanese territory, and shot it down.
“We downed a Hezbollah drone that crossed from Lebanon into Israel today. The drone was monitored by our soldiers throughout the incident,” the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said.
“The IDF will continue to operate against any attempt by terrorists to violate Israeli sovereignty.”
A similar incident took place a few months ago, a few days after an exchange of fire between the IDF and Hezbollah.
This development led Hezbollah’s Secretary General, Hassan Nasrallah, to threaten Israel that he would attack “deep in the Galilee” with rockets, as he put it.
- Nasrallah: Saudi Arabia spreading extremist ideology
- ‘Alliance with Hezbollah not working’
- Indictment filed against Arab who acted on behalf of Hezbollah
- If Israel strikes Iran, Nasrallah will obey Iranian orders
