A Hezbollah drone launched from Lebanon was shot down by the Israeli Air Force a short while ago.
The military says the drone, which triggered sirens in the border community of Avivim, was intercepted before crossing into Israeli territory.
In another incident, an interceptor missile was fired at a suspected Hezbollah drone that was identified over an area of southern Lebanon where troops are deployed. The IDF says the results of the interception are under review.
“These are further violations of the ceasefire understandings by the Hezbollah terror organization,” the IDF says.
