An interceptor missile was launched at an apparent Hezbollah drone detected over an area of southern Lebanon where troops are deployed, the military says.
Sirens had sounded in the border community of Misgav Am during the incident, though the IDF says the “suspicious aerial target” did not cross the border.
The results of the interception are under review, the military says.
In another incident, the IDF says another apparent Hezbollah drone was shot down by the Israeli Air Force over southern Lebanon.
