A tense calm prevailed at the southern border on Sunday morning after a major escalation on Saturday. Hezbollah launched two drones' attacks against Israeli towns in the Upper Galilee.
According to Israeli media, around noon on Sunday, alerts sounded in northern Israel for "hostile aircraft intrusions". According to the Israeli army, "a surveillance UAV was successfully intercepted. A second alarm sounded for missiles a few minutes later "due to the daner of falling shrapnel from the interception".
According to Hezbollah, the air attack “targeted positions and settlements of Israeli officers and soldiers, resulting in injuries and fatalities.”
The Israeli army confirmed Sunday morning's attack, stating that “no injuries were reported” and that “an interceptor had been launched toward the UAV, triggering rocket and missile sirens due to potential falling shrapnel.” The army stated that “the incident was under review.”
Concurrently, Hezbollah released a video overnight (shown below), warning Tel Aviv against a major attack against Lebanon and displaying sensitive Israeli military locations. According to Haaretz, the video captured satellite footage of key Israeli facilities, including “the Haifa oil refineries, Ben Gurion International Airport, and the Ashdod Port,” among others.
The exchanges of fire continued intermittently throughout the day and into the evening. The Israeli army conducted raids on the villages of Khiam and Ramya, while Hezbollah repeatedly shelled the occupied part of Kfarchouba.
