Parts of a drone launched from Lebanon that crashed in the north were found near the western Galilee town of Betzet, Channel 12 news reports.
A second impact site was identified near Acre, according to the station.
Betzet sits just two kilometers (1.2 miles) from the Lebanese border, while Acre is some 16 kilometers (10 miles) deeper inside Israel.
According to reports, at least some of the IDF’s attempts to shoot down drones launched from Lebanon were unsuccessful.
The army says three drones were launched from Lebanon, but pointedly does not say if attempts to intercept them were successful, and is vague on how many of them crashed in northern Israel.
There is no claim of responsibility for the attack.
