Dead and injured in drone attack in Israel – Hezbollah threatens harsher attacks
The warning sirens had not blared before the attack. “We will investigate how a drone can enter and hit a base without warning,” Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari announced in a statement shortly after midnight, according to media.
The pro-Iranian Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for the attack. They fired a “squadron of attack drones” at an Israeli military training camp in Binjamina. A little later, the Hezbollah militia threatened Israel with even more violent attacks if the neighboring country did not stop its offensive in Lebanon. According to a statement released during the night, “what the enemy experienced today in southern Haifa is just a small foretaste of what awaits him if he decides to continue his aggression against our noble and beloved people “. Just on Friday, a drone from Lebanon caused damage to buildings in the seaside resort of Herzliya near Tel Aviv.
An initial investigation into the latest attack said Hezbollah had two in Lebanon Shahed-Drones launched that entered Israeli airspace from the sea, like the one 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.
