Sirens warning of suspected drone attack sound in towns close to Lebanon border

Sirens warning of suspected incoming drones sound in a number of communities close to the border with Lebanon.

The border area has seen a surge of violence since the deadly Hamas onslaught in southern Israel on October 7 and the subsequent war in Gaza, with the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group launching rockets, missiles and drones at Israel on a near-daily basis, which Israel has responded to by hitting Hezbollah targets close to the border.

The alerts come as White House special envoy Amos Hochstein is set to meet with officials in Beirut later today “in an effort to advance discussions to restore calm” along the border between Lebanon and Israel, according to a spokesperson for the US National Security Council.
