Fresh escalation along the Israel-Lebanon border as Hezbollah launched drone attacks targeting Israel Defense Forces positions near northern communities like Shomera. At least 12 soldiers were wounded after a drone strike hit an artillery carrier, triggering explosions. The IDF responded by intercepting multiple aerial threats and launching retaliatory airstrikes on Hezbollah-linked sites across southern Lebanon. Sirens also sounded in areas including Misgav Am and Kfar Giladi amid ongoing drone alerts. Adding to concerns, officials are investigating the possible use of advanced fiber optic-guided drones — a tactic that could bypass traditional defense systems. As evacuation warnings are issued across several Lebanese villages, tensions on the northern front continue to surge, raising fears of a broader conflict.
