Hezbollah claims to carry out attack with armed drone against IDF posts on northern border

Hezbollah claims to have carried out an attack against Israeli military positions near the northern border community of Metula using an armed drone.
In a statement, the terror group says the drone launched two missiles at the IDF targets.
It would mark the first time Hezbollah has used a drone that launches missiles, rather than explosive-laden drones which it has used repeatedly amid the war.
Hezbollah’s claims cannot be immediately verified.
The IDF has not yet commented on the incident.
