The Israeli Air Force intercepted at least four Hezbollah drones a short while ago, while the results of a fifth are under review.
One drone crossed the border and triggered sirens in the community of Rosh Hanikra, while three others were intercepted over southern Lebanon before crossing into Israeli territory, the military says.
An interceptor missile was also fired toward another suspected Hezbollah drone identified over an area of southern Lebanon where troops are deployed. The IDF says the results of the interception are under review.
