IDF says drone sirens on Lebanon border were a false alarm

The Israel Defense Forces in a statement says no hostile aircraft entered Israeli airspace from Lebanon, after sirens had sounded in the communities of Baram, Avivim and Yir’on.
In an apparently uncoordinated statement, the IDF Home Front Command claims that a “hostile aircraft” was intercepted, and an all-clear is given to residents.
