(Worthy News) – Israeli troops downed a drone belonging to the Hezbollah terror group on Wednesday after it entered Israeli airspace, the Israel Defense Forces said on Thursday.
The military said the drone — a small copter mode — was “monitored throughout the entire event.” An IDF spokesperson said the day-long delay in reporting the incident was necessary in order to study the device after it was brought down.
The spokesman said the device was not armed at the time, likely indicating it was performing a reconnaissance mission of some kind. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
