IDF says Hezbollah breached truce by launching rockets at troops, drone at Israel

Hezbollah violated the ceasefire by firing several rockets at Israeli troops stationed in southern Lebanon, as well as launching a drone at Israel, the military says.

According to the IDF, Hezbollah fired several rockets toward troops stationed in the Rab al-Thalathine area, within the Israeli-held security zone.

Within a few minutes, the IDF says it struck the launcher used in the attack.

Separately, the IDF says that the sirens that sounded in Kfar Yuval and Ma’ayan Baruch on the Lebanon border were not false alarms as initially reported. Following an examination, the IDF says the alerts were triggered in the border communities due to the interception of a drone that was launched from Lebanon. The drone was shot down before crossing the border, according to the military.

The IDF says the attacks are “blatant violations of the ceasefire agreement.”
