The IDF says it intercepted a “suspicious aerial target,” believed to be a drone, that was heading toward Israeli airspace from Lebanon earlier today.

The incident set off suspected drone infiltration alarms in several communities in the Upper Galilee.

A military spokesperson says the target was downed over Lebanese airspace, before it crossed into Israel.
