Footage circulating on social media shows the Iron Dome air defense system intercepting a Hezbollah drone over the Galilee Panhandle this morning.
The video is some of the clearest footage showing a drone being intercepted by Israeli air defenses. The IDF earlier released grainy black-and-white footage of the same interception.
According to the IDF, two drones were shot down this morning: One over the Kiryat Shmona area and the second over Lebanese airspace.
