Israel downs Hezbollah drone that crossed into airspace

TEL AVIV, 14 August 2021, (TON): The Israeli military said that Israel downed a Hezbollah drone earlier this week that crossed into its airspace.

The military said in a statement “our troops monitored and successfully downed the drone.”

“We will continue to operate in order to prevent any attempt to violate Israeli sovereignty.”

According to Israeli media reports, the drone was unarmed and likely on a reconnaissance mission.

Tensions between Hezbollah and Israel reached a boiling point last week, leading to rocket attacks from the militant group that drew Israeli airstrikes and artillery fire.

Despite the animosity, both sides targeted open ground to avoid any casualties and potential escalation.
