Meanwhile, Hezbollah launched several explosive-laden drones at Israeli troops stationed in southern Lebanon in two incidents yesterday. The IDF says the drones struck near the forces but did not cause any injuries.
“These are further violations of the ceasefire understandings by the Hezbollah terror organization,” the military says.
