Hezbollah fired a surface-to-air missile at an Israeli drone operating over southern Lebanon a short while ago.

The military says the terror group’s anti-aircraft missile launch “failed,” and no damage or injuries were caused in the incident.

A short while later, the Israeli Air Force struck a suspect who fled from the area of the missile launch on a motorcycle, the IDF adds.

In a separate incident earlier, the IDF says that Hezbollah launched several explosive drones at Israeli troops in southern Lebanon. No injuries were caused.

The Air Force also shot down several apparent Hezbollah drones over areas of southern Lebanon where troops are operating, the military adds.
