A suspected drone infiltration alarm is sounding in the Upper Galilee, near the Lebanon border.
The alerts are activated in the communities of Iftach, Malkia, Mevo’ot Hermon Regional Council, Ramot Naftali, and Dishon.
At the same time, a rocket siren is sounding in the community of Amuka, close to Safed.
The IDF is looking into the cause of the alarms.
The Hezbollah terror group has carried out several attacks on northern Israel using explosive-laden drones, though there have also been numerous false alarms.
