Hezbollah Drone Attack Wounds 2 IDF Soldiers, One Seriously  

By The Media Line Staff  

One Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldier was seriously wounded and another lightly injured in an explosive drone attack carried out by Hezbollah against Israeli troops, the military said, even  as a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon is in place.  

The strike was part of a series of drone attacks launched by Hezbollah in recent days despite the ceasefire. The military also reported multiple drone infiltration attempts into northern Israel over the same period.  

In a statement, the IDF said the attack constitutes a “violation of the ceasefire understandings by the Hezbollah terror group.”  

Lebanese sources reported that Israeli forces carried out strikes in southern Lebanon, including in the villages of Kounin, Touline and the Bint Jbeil area.  

At an IDF Senior Command Staff Conference on Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited what he described as “significant achievements” in Lebanon. “We are striking in the security zone, north of the security zone and also north of the Litani,” Netanyahu said.  

He said Hezbollah continues to pose two primary threats from Lebanon, identifying rocket fire and drone capabilities as ongoing concerns. “There are still two main threats from Lebanon, from Hezbollah: the rocket threat (Grad), the drone and UAV threat … I expect from you is to solve these two problems, because I think we will be able to solve the political side,” Netanyahu added.
