An IDF soldier was lightly wounded in a Hezbollah drone attack on the Galilee Panhandle earlier this evening, the military says.

Suspected drone infiltration sirens had sounded at 7:26 p.m. after at least one explosive-laden drone crossed into Israeli airspace from Lebanon, before impacting near the northern community of Beit Hillel, wounding the soldier.

Hezbollah took responsibility for the attack.

Meanwhile, the IDF says it carried out an airstrike against a building in southern Lebanon’s Odaisseh earlier today, after spotting a cell of Hezbollah operatives there.

It releases footage of the strike.
