Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

The Israel Defense Forces says it carried out a drone strike on a group of armed operatives in the contested Mount Dov area on the Lebanon border overnight.

The incident comes amid repeated attacks by the Hezbollah terror group and allied Palestinian factions on northern Israel.

The IDF also confirms that it struck targets in Syria early this morning, in response to rocket fire on the Golan last night.

The two projectiles had landed in open areas near Buq’ata, causing no damage.
