The Israeli military ordered residents of Jabsheet and Sarafand in southern Lebanon to leave their homes, issuing fresh displacement warnings amid ongoing tensions.
Residents were told to evacuate “immediately and move away from the villages and towns for a distance of at least 1,000 metres to open areas”.
The military added that anyone remaining near what it described as “Hezbollah elements, facilities and combat” would be putting their lives at risk.
According to the IDF, the two terrorists had been armed and operating near IDF troops when they were identified. They attempted to escape on a motorcycle, but the IDF's drone caught up.
As Hezbollah deploys maneuverable, jam‑proof drones, Israeli companies like Smart Shooter are scrambling to adapt and turning soldiers into precision drone interceptors.
