Later on Monday, the region experienced several drone intrusions within approximately one hour. As a result, there were two reported shrapnel falls in Shomera.
The IDF announced shortly afterward that a number of “suspicious aerial targets” entered Israeli airspace. Contact was subsequently lost with the targets, but no wounded were reported. The military also confirmed that several explosive drones entered Israeli territory near the Lebanese border, one of which fell in Shomera.
Zamir, Smotritch threaten to strike Beirut after drone attacks
Meanwhile, IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich threatened to attack Beirut in response to the damage caused by Hezbollah’s drone attacks.
“We must put an end to the threat of Hezbollah’s explosive drones,” Smotrich said in a Monday statement. “For every explosive drone, ten buildings in Beirut should fall.”
Leader of the Blue and White party, MK Benny Gantz, addressed the threat of Hezbollah’s explosive drones, claiming that “the best defense against Hezbollah is an attack” during a party meeting, Ynet news reported on Monday.
According to him, “if explosive drones continue to crash in Israel, no plane should take off in Beirut.”
