Hezbollah attacks north Israel with suicide drones

Hezbollah attacked Tuesday northern Israel with suicide drones.

The group said its drones targeted soldiers in the Yiftah barracks, inflicting casualties, while other drones hit an Iron Dome platform in the Ramot Naftali barracks, damaging it.

Israeli media had earlier reported several “suspicious aerial targets” believed to be explosive-laden drones launched by Hezbollah.

The Israeli army claimed its air defenses downed one drone while another struck an area near Yiftah, causing a fire, and others caused minor damage at unspecified locations and open areas.

Israeli tanks meanwhile shelled the outskirts of Kfarshouba as Hezbollah targeted a post in the occupied Shebaa Farms, surveillance equipment in the occupied Kfarshouba Hills and soldiers in the al-Raheb post facing Ayta al-Shaab and in the Ramot Naftali barracks.

Israeli warplanes had carried out airstrikes on Jabal al-Rihan and Iqlim al-Toffah in south Lebanon.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Israeli army said that two soldiers were killed in a Hezbollah Monday attack on a post near Metula in northern Israel.
