An IDF reserve soldier and member of Kibbutz Hanita’s emergency standby squad was seriously injured as a result of an explosive UAV that exploded on the kibbutz earlier on Saturday.
The IDF confirmed that this was a result of an explosive UAV and that the reserve soldier was evacuated to the hospital for medical treatment, and his family was notified.
Following alerts activated around the area surrounding Kibbutz Hanita, three missiles that were shot into Israeli territory from Lebanon fell into open areas, the IDF confirmed on Saturday.
Additionally, two explosive drones crossed from Lebanese territory into Israel a short time ago and exploded in the area of Hanita in northern Israel.
In response, the IDF retaliated with artillery fire to southern Lebanon.
Rise in cross-border tensions in northern Israel
The cross-border fire exchanges between Israel and Hezbollah have become tense in recent months, especially in light of Israel’s strike against Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps Quds commanders in Syria in the past weeks.
In recent days, Iran has weighed whether to pursue a full confrontation with Israel or continue to rely on its proxies in the region, such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen.
