Israeli civilian helicopter overflies south Lebanon
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn Israeli civilian helicopter pilot flies his privately owned chopper over southern Lebanon on Thursday afternoon.
Israeli air defense authorities make contact with the pilot after detecting his passage into Lebanese air space and help guide him back into Israeli territory.
The Air Force is investigating the cause for the overflight.
According to Channel 2, the pilot took off from the northern city of Kiryat Shemona and may have attempted to fly in a straight line toward the coastal city of Nahariya, a route that would necessarily take him over southern Lebanon.
