Israel’s enemies repeatedly attack the Jewish state with combat drones. An attack near the town of Binjamina leaves people dead and injured.
The pro-Iranian Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attack. They fired a “squadron of attack drones” at an Israeli military training camp in Binjamina.
According to an initial investigation, Hezbollah launched two kamikaze drones from Lebanon that entered Israeli airspace from the sea, the Times of Israel reported. Both drones were detected by radar and one was shot down off the coast north of Haifa. Planes and helicopters tracked the second drone, but it disappeared from the radar. No sirens sounded because it was assumed that the drone had crashed or been intercepted, the newspaper reported. The drone eventually landed near Binjamina.
