An IDF soldier was lightly wounded as a result of an explosion-laden drone impact in the Golan Heights last night, the military says.

According to the IDF, three drones were launched from Lebanon in the attack, and impacted near the Beit Hameches junction in northern Israel.

The IDF says it is investigating why sirens did not sound and why it failed to intercept the drones.

Hezbollah claimed responsibility.
