Hezbollah-Israel ceasefire violated after less than 24 hours

Share:

Hezbollah launched a surface-to-air missile at an Israeli drone early on Saturday morning, breaking the tenuous ceasefire between the two parties.

The de-facto ceasefire established between Hezbollah and Israel on Friday was broken early on Saturday after a surface-to-air missile from Lebanon unsuccessfully targeted an Israeli drone, prompting retaliatory Israeli shelling.

Israeli media reported that its military shot down the missile and that it responded by targeting “Hezbollah infrastructure” by the Lebanese border. Warning sirens were later activated due to suspicions of a drone entering airspace over northern Israel, but the border remained otherwise in the hours after the exchange.

Hezbollah’s spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for a comment on the clash.
