Three drones launched from Lebanon breached the airspace of the occupied Palestinian territories, an Al Mayadeen correspondent reported.

Reports from Israeli media confirm that one-way drones targeted a vehicle and a military base in Nahariya, resulting in several injuries.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that a swarm of drones, undetected by Israeli anti-air systems, flew over Shlomi, Nahariya, and Akka in northern occupied Palestine.

Further reports indicate that fires erupted within a military base in Nahariya following the attack by multiple drones. Another Israeli media outlet mentioned a critical injury from a direct hit south of Nahariya, while other sources confirmed that the drones struck two different areas in the city.

A fatality was reported in western al-Jalil after a drone exploded before sirens were sounded once again in Akka and northern settlements after the drone attacks. Israeli media reported sirens in Akka, Bustan HaGalil, and Shomrat amid fears of another drone infiltration.

The head of the Mazraa settlement council near Nahariya stated, "We are 12 kilometers from the border with Lebanon and do not have bomb shelters in the settlement." 

Islamic Resistance claims responsibility

Two Israeli soldiers were injured in a drone attack on the Shiraga camp, Hezbollah said in the wake of the attacks. 

Hezbollah's Islamic Resistance in Lebanon announced, "Our fighters launched an attack with a squadron of assault drones on the 'Shiraga' barracks north of occupied Akka."

The attack specifically targeted the headquarters of the Golani Brigade and the Egoz Unit 621 within the Shiraga barracks, resulting in confirmed casualties. It was later reported by Israeli media that at least two soldiers and five settlers were wounded in the attack.

The Resistance underlined that the offensive comes "in response to the aggression and assassination the Israeli enemy carried out in the town of Ebba," as well as in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza and their Resistance factions.

Kamikaze drone operations: A new go-to?

The attack comes just after Hezbollah released a statement early on Monday, affirming the launching of a drone attack on an Israeli base, as it came in line with its daily responses to Israeli aggression. 

Two Israeli soldiers were injured in the drone attack, which targeted the Israeli occupation forces' 91st Division headquarters in Ayelet HaShahar, one of whom was critically injured. The occupation military confirmed that a military officer and a soldier were wounded as a result of the impact of "suspicious aircraft", adding that several interceptor missiles were fired at the targets.  

Israeli media outlets reported that Israeli military rescue helicopters rushed to the scene of the attack, nearly 10 kilometers away from the Israeli line of withdrawal from Lebanon, to transport the casualties. 

The attack occurred at around 2:20 am (local time) and saw Hezbollah's drones surpass layers of Israeli air defenses, settlements, and military sites, before impacting the Ayelet Base. 

Hezbollah's Military Media unit released a statement affirming that the attack came in response to the Israeli aggressions and assassinations conducted in the towns of al-Bazourieh, Deir Siryan, and Houla in South Lebanon, and in support of the Palestinian people. 

The unit revealed that Hezbollah's Unmanned Air Force launched a swarm of drones toward the newly set up headquarters of the 91st Division, responsible for the Northern Front with Lebanon.
