Iranian Ababil drone |
A drone launched by Hezbollah over Israel was able to safely return to its base without being damaged, according to foreign reports.Hezbollah has been deploying, with Iranian assistance, some sophisticated drone capabilities. It has also successfully flown drones over Israel before.
The UAV was launched this past Wednesday night, hovered for about 14 hours over Israel through Thursday morning "and successfully completed the mission," according to reports.
Jihadist sources say Hezbollah is expected to soon provide more details about its success.
Hezbollah drones have reportedly been used to bomb sites in Syria as well, meaning that they have offensive capabilities (possibly by crashing themselves into the targets.)
If this report is true (which is a very big if,) it would be a very worrying development.
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
